Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4432,2908 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4432,2908 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 684,887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 606708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/606708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4432/684,2908/887 is 4/606708
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 684,887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(684,887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(684,887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(684,887) = ( 684 × 887 ) / 1
LCM(684,887) = 606708 / 1
LCM(684,887) = 606708
