Lets's calculate GCF of 636,347
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 636
:1,2,3,4,6,12,53,106,159,212,318,636
Now, list down the factors of 347
:1,347
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 636,347 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 636,347 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,995
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42785
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42785
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 636/43,347/995 is 1/42785
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 43,995 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,995) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,995) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,995) = ( 43 × 995 ) / 1
LCM(43,995) = 42785 / 1
LCM(43,995) = 42785
