Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 623,172 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 623,172 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,791
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 262612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/262612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 623/332,172/791 is 1/262612
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 332,791 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,791) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,791) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,791) = ( 332 × 791 ) / 1
LCM(332,791) = 262612 / 1
LCM(332,791) = 262612
