Now, list down the factors of 296
:1,2,4,8,37,74,148,296
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 579,296 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 579,296 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,833
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 334033
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/334033
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 579/401,296/833 is 1/334033
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 401,833 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,833) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,833) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,833) = ( 401 × 833 ) / 1
LCM(401,833) = 334033 / 1
LCM(401,833) = 334033
