Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8840,9720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8840,9720 is 40.
Lets's calculate LCM of 835,523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 436705
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 40/436705
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8840/835,9720/523 is 40/436705
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 835,523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(835,523) = ( 835 × 523 ) / 1
LCM(835,523) = 436705 / 1
LCM(835,523) = 436705
