Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 915,259 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 915,259 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 782328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/782328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 915/888,259/881 is 1/782328
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 888,881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(888,881) = ( 888 × 881 ) / 1
LCM(888,881) = 782328 / 1
LCM(888,881) = 782328
