Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 396,321 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 396,321 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 870,419
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 364530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/364530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 396/870,321/419 is 3/364530
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 870,419 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(870,419) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(870,419) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(870,419) = ( 870 × 419 ) / 1
LCM(870,419) = 364530 / 1
LCM(870,419) = 364530
