Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 651,8859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 651,8859 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 661,338
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 223418
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/223418
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 651/661,8859/338 is 3/223418
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 661,338 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,338) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,338) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,338) = ( 661 × 338 ) / 1
LCM(661,338) = 223418 / 1
LCM(661,338) = 223418
