Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1840,8717 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1840,8717 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 622,459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 285498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/285498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1840/622,8717/459 is 23/285498
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 622,459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(622,459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(622,459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(622,459) = ( 622 × 459 ) / 1
LCM(622,459) = 285498 / 1
LCM(622,459) = 285498
