Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 404,993 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 404,993 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 686,995
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 682570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/682570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 404/686,993/995 is 1/682570
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 686,995 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(686,995) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(686,995) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(686,995) = ( 686 × 995 ) / 1
LCM(686,995) = 682570 / 1
LCM(686,995) = 682570
