:1,6221
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8562,6221 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8562,6221 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 418,687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 287166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/287166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8562/418,6221/687 is 1/287166
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 418,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(418,687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(418,687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(418,687) = ( 418 × 687 ) / 1
LCM(418,687) = 287166 / 1
LCM(418,687) = 287166
