:1,19,47,893
Now, list down the factors of 1979
:1,1979
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 893,1979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 893,1979 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 424,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 300616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/300616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 893/424,1979/709 is 1/300616
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 424,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(424,709) = ( 424 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(424,709) = 300616 / 1
LCM(424,709) = 300616
