We found the factors 503,997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 503,997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 824,824
2 | 824, 824 |
2 | 412, 412 |
2 | 206, 206 |
103 | 103, 103 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 103 x 1 x 1 = 824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 503/824,997/824 is 1/824
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 824,824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(824,824) = 824
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(824,824) x common factors =824 x 1 = 824
LCM(824,824) = ( 824 × 824 ) / 824
LCM(824,824) = 678976 / 824
LCM(824,824) = 824
