Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 634,281 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 634,281 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 884,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/158236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 634/884,281/179 is 1/158236
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 884,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(884,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(884,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(884,179) = ( 884 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(884,179) = 158236 / 1
LCM(884,179) = 158236
