Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 835,502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 835,502 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,8976
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 709104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/709104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 835/79,502/8976 is 1/709104
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 79,8976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,8976) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,8976) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,8976) = ( 79 × 8976 ) / 1
LCM(79,8976) = 709104 / 1
LCM(79,8976) = 709104
