Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9688,3114 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9688,3114 is 346.
Lets's calculate LCM of 599,741
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 443859
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 346/443859
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9688/599,3114/741 is 346/443859
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 599,741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,741) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,741) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,741) = ( 599 × 741 ) / 1
LCM(599,741) = 443859 / 1
LCM(599,741) = 443859
