Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 484,940 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 484,940 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 386,561
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 216546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/216546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 484/386,940/561 is 4/216546
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 386,561 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(386,561) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(386,561) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(386,561) = ( 386 × 561 ) / 1
LCM(386,561) = 216546 / 1
LCM(386,561) = 216546
