Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 924,8792 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 924,8792 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 251908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/251908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 924/284,8792/887 is 28/251908
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 284,887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,887) = ( 284 × 887 ) / 1
LCM(284,887) = 251908 / 1
LCM(284,887) = 251908
