Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 500,8630 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 500,8630 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,383
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 340104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/340104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 500/888,8630/383 is 10/340104
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 888,383 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,383) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,383) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(888,383) = ( 888 × 383 ) / 1
LCM(888,383) = 340104 / 1
LCM(888,383) = 340104
