Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 667,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 667,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,8536
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 247544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/247544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 667/29,531/8536 is 1/247544
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 29,8536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,8536) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,8536) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,8536) = ( 29 × 8536 ) / 1
LCM(29,8536) = 247544 / 1
LCM(29,8536) = 247544
