Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 284,155 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 284,155 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 979,332
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 325028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/325028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/979,155/332 is 1/325028
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 979,332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(979,332) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(979,332) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(979,332) = ( 979 × 332 ) / 1
LCM(979,332) = 325028 / 1
LCM(979,332) = 325028
