Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 752,832 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 752,832 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 859,861
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 739599
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/739599
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 752/859,832/861 is 16/739599
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 859,861 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(859,861) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(859,861) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(859,861) = ( 859 × 861 ) / 1
LCM(859,861) = 739599 / 1
LCM(859,861) = 739599
