Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 580,870 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 580,870 is 290.
Lets's calculate LCM of 872,881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 768232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 290/768232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 580/872,870/881 is 290/768232
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 872,881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(872,881) = ( 872 × 881 ) / 1
LCM(872,881) = 768232 / 1
LCM(872,881) = 768232
