Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1999,1556 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1999,1556 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 703,6317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4440851
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4440851
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1999/703,1556/6317 is 1/4440851
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 703,6317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,6317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,6317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,6317) = ( 703 × 6317 ) / 1
LCM(703,6317) = 4440851 / 1
LCM(703,6317) = 4440851
