:1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42,49,98,147,294,343,686,1029,2058
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 556,2058 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 556,2058 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 444,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 429348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/429348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 556/444,2058/967 is 2/429348
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 444,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(444,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(444,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(444,967) = ( 444 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(444,967) = 429348 / 1
LCM(444,967) = 429348
