We found the factors 866,4720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 866,4720 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 883,9981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8813223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8813223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 866/883,4720/9981 is 2/8813223
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 883,9981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(883,9981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(883,9981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(883,9981) = ( 883 × 9981 ) / 1
LCM(883,9981) = 8813223 / 1
LCM(883,9981) = 8813223
