So the greatest common factor 523,336 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 941,887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 834667
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/834667
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 523/941,336/887 is 1/834667
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 941,887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,887) = ( 941 × 887 ) / 1
LCM(941,887) = 834667 / 1
LCM(941,887) = 834667
