Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 798,266 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 798,266 is 266.
Lets's calculate LCM of 327,803
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 262581
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 266/262581
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 798/327,266/803 is 266/262581
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 327,803 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(327,803) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(327,803) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(327,803) = ( 327 × 803 ) / 1
LCM(327,803) = 262581 / 1
LCM(327,803) = 262581
