Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 377,533 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 377,533 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 819,842
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 689598
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/689598
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 377/819,533/842 is 13/689598
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 819,842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(819,842) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(819,842) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(819,842) = ( 819 × 842 ) / 1
LCM(819,842) = 689598 / 1
LCM(819,842) = 689598
