Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 874,717 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 874,717 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,998
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 60878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 874/61,717/998 is 1/60878
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 61,998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,998) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,998) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,998) = ( 61 × 998 ) / 1
LCM(61,998) = 60878 / 1
LCM(61,998) = 60878
