Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 541,956 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 541,956 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 376,783
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 294408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/294408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 541/376,956/783 is 1/294408
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 376,783 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,783) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,783) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(376,783) = ( 376 × 783 ) / 1
LCM(376,783) = 294408 / 1
LCM(376,783) = 294408
