So the greatest common factor 532,249 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 837,812
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 679644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/679644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 532/837,249/812 is 1/679644
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 837,812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,812) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,812) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,812) = ( 837 × 812 ) / 1
LCM(837,812) = 679644 / 1
LCM(837,812) = 679644
