Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 494,373 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 494,373 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 905,981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 887805
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/887805
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 494/905,373/981 is 1/887805
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 905,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(905,981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(905,981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(905,981) = ( 905 × 981 ) / 1
LCM(905,981) = 887805 / 1
LCM(905,981) = 887805
