:1,3,97,291
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 700,291 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 700,291 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 879,301
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 264579
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/264579
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 700/879,291/301 is 1/264579
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 879,301 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,301) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,301) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,301) = ( 879 × 301 ) / 1
LCM(879,301) = 264579 / 1
LCM(879,301) = 264579
