Now, list down the factors of 431
:1,431
Now, list down the factors of 686
:1,2,7,14,49,98,343,686
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 431,686 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 431,686 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 566,689
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 389974
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/389974
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 431/566,686/689 is 1/389974
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 566,689 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(566,689) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(566,689) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(566,689) = ( 566 × 689 ) / 1
LCM(566,689) = 389974 / 1
LCM(566,689) = 389974
