:1,1523
Now, list down the factors of 8734
:1,2,11,22,397,794,4367,8734
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1523,8734 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1523,8734 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 380964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/380964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1523/636,8734/599 is 1/380964
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 636,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,599) = ( 636 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(636,599) = 380964 / 1
LCM(636,599) = 380964
