Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 577,298 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 577,298 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 873,634
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 553482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/553482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 577/873,298/634 is 1/553482
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 873,634 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,634) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,634) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,634) = ( 873 × 634 ) / 1
LCM(873,634) = 553482 / 1
LCM(873,634) = 553482
