Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 229,697 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 229,697 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 823,239
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 196697
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/196697
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 229/823,697/239 is 1/196697
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 823,239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(823,239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(823,239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(823,239) = ( 823 × 239 ) / 1
LCM(823,239) = 196697 / 1
LCM(823,239) = 196697
