Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 480,908 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 480,908 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 65802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/65802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 480/66,908/997 is 4/65802
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 66,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,997) = ( 66 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(66,997) = 65802 / 1
LCM(66,997) = 65802
