Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 179,886 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 179,886 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 412,349
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 143788
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/143788
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 179/412,886/349 is 1/143788
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 412,349 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(412,349) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(412,349) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(412,349) = ( 412 × 349 ) / 1
LCM(412,349) = 143788 / 1
LCM(412,349) = 143788
