Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 684,659 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 684,659 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,402
2 | 98, 402 |
49, 201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 201 = 19698
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19698
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 684/98,659/402 is 1/19698
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 98,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,402) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,402) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,402) = ( 98 × 402 ) / 2
LCM(98,402) = 39396 / 2
LCM(98,402) = 19698
