Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 825,946 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 825,946 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 384559
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/384559
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 825/959,946/401 is 11/384559
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 959,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,401) = ( 959 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(959,401) = 384559 / 1
LCM(959,401) = 384559
