Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 517,5214 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 517,5214 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 715,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 485485
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/485485
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 517/715,5214/679 is 11/485485
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 715,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(715,679) = ( 715 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(715,679) = 485485 / 1
LCM(715,679) = 485485
