Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 791,143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 791,143 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 894,506
2 | 894, 506 |
447, 253 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 447 x 253 = 226182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/226182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 791/894,143/506 is 1/226182
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 894,506 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,506) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,506) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(894,506) = ( 894 × 506 ) / 2
LCM(894,506) = 452364 / 2
LCM(894,506) = 226182
