Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 703,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 703,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 888327
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/888327
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 703/997,531/891 is 1/888327
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 997,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,891) = ( 997 × 891 ) / 1
LCM(997,891) = 888327 / 1
LCM(997,891) = 888327
