Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 99,2596 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 99,2596 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,3809
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2616783
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2616783
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 99/687,2596/3809 is 11/2616783
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 687,3809 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,3809) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,3809) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,3809) = ( 687 × 3809 ) / 1
LCM(687,3809) = 2616783 / 1
LCM(687,3809) = 2616783
