Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 783,217 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 783,217 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,8838
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/150246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 783/17,217/8838 is 1/150246
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 17,8838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,8838) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,8838) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,8838) = ( 17 × 8838 ) / 1
LCM(17,8838) = 150246 / 1
LCM(17,8838) = 150246
