Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8603,2213 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8603,2213 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 279,8599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2399121
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2399121
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8603/279,2213/8599 is 1/2399121
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 279,8599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(279,8599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(279,8599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(279,8599) = ( 279 × 8599 ) / 1
LCM(279,8599) = 2399121 / 1
LCM(279,8599) = 2399121
