Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 784,901 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 784,901 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 638,237
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 151206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/151206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 784/638,901/237 is 1/151206
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 638,237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(638,237) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(638,237) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(638,237) = ( 638 × 237 ) / 1
LCM(638,237) = 151206 / 1
LCM(638,237) = 151206
