Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 646,227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 646,227 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 989,741
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 732849
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/732849
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 646/989,227/741 is 1/732849
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 989,741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,741) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,741) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,741) = ( 989 × 741 ) / 1
LCM(989,741) = 732849 / 1
LCM(989,741) = 732849
