Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8432,8672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8432,8672 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 313,459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 143667
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/143667
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8432/313,8672/459 is 16/143667
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 313,459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(313,459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(313,459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(313,459) = ( 313 × 459 ) / 1
LCM(313,459) = 143667 / 1
LCM(313,459) = 143667
