Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 800,949 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 800,949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 821,968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 794728
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/794728
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 800/821,949/968 is 1/794728
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 821,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(821,968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(821,968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(821,968) = ( 821 × 968 ) / 1
LCM(821,968) = 794728 / 1
LCM(821,968) = 794728
