We found the factors 401,863 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 401,863 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 606,432
2 | 606, 432 |
3 | 303, 216 |
101, 72 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 101 x 72 = 43632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/43632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 401/606,863/432 is 1/43632
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 606,432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,432) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,432) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(606,432) = ( 606 × 432 ) / 6
LCM(606,432) = 261792 / 6
LCM(606,432) = 43632
