Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 629,332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 629,332 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 437,372
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/162564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 629/437,332/372 is 1/162564
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 437,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(437,372) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(437,372) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(437,372) = ( 437 × 372 ) / 1
LCM(437,372) = 162564 / 1
LCM(437,372) = 162564
