Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 484,493 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 484,493 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 661,942
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 622662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/622662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 484/661,493/942 is 1/622662
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 661,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,942) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,942) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,942) = ( 661 × 942 ) / 1
LCM(661,942) = 622662 / 1
LCM(661,942) = 622662
