Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 399,743 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 399,743 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 999,609
3 | 999, 609 |
333, 203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 333 x 203 = 202797
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/202797
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 399/999,743/609 is 1/202797
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 999,609 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(999,609) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(999,609) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(999,609) = ( 999 × 609 ) / 3
LCM(999,609) = 608391 / 3
LCM(999,609) = 202797
