:1,587
Now, list down the factors of 976
:1,2,4,8,16,61,122,244,488,976
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 587,976 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 587,976 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29652
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29652
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 587/84,976/353 is 1/29652
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 84,353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(84,353) = ( 84 × 353 ) / 1
LCM(84,353) = 29652 / 1
LCM(84,353) = 29652
