Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 583,158 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 583,158 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 631,368
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 232208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/232208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 583/631,158/368 is 1/232208
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 631,368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(631,368) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(631,368) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(631,368) = ( 631 × 368 ) / 1
LCM(631,368) = 232208 / 1
LCM(631,368) = 232208
