Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 669,979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 669,979 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 968,729
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 705672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/705672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 669/968,979/729 is 1/705672
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 968,729 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(968,729) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(968,729) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(968,729) = ( 968 × 729 ) / 1
LCM(968,729) = 705672 / 1
LCM(968,729) = 705672
