Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 564,958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 564,958 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 400,917
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 366800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/366800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 564/400,958/917 is 2/366800
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 400,917 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(400,917) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(400,917) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(400,917) = ( 400 × 917 ) / 1
LCM(400,917) = 366800 / 1
LCM(400,917) = 366800
