So the greatest common factor 623,432 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 303,178
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 53934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 623/303,432/178 is 1/53934
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 303,178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,178) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(303,178) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(303,178) = ( 303 × 178 ) / 1
LCM(303,178) = 53934 / 1
LCM(303,178) = 53934
