Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 704,559 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 704,559 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 506,848
2 | 506, 848 |
253, 424 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 253 x 424 = 214544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/214544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 704/506,559/848 is 1/214544
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 506,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,848) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,848) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(506,848) = ( 506 × 848 ) / 2
LCM(506,848) = 429088 / 2
LCM(506,848) = 214544
