Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 105,587 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 105,587 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 938,321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 301098
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/301098
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 105/938,587/321 is 1/301098
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 938,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(938,321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(938,321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(938,321) = ( 938 × 321 ) / 1
LCM(938,321) = 301098 / 1
LCM(938,321) = 301098
