:1,8737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7776,8737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7776,8737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 717,587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 420879
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/420879
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7776/717,8737/587 is 1/420879
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 717,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(717,587) = ( 717 × 587 ) / 1
LCM(717,587) = 420879 / 1
LCM(717,587) = 420879
