Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 961,131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 961,131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 678,598
2 | 678, 598 |
339, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 339 x 299 = 202722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/202722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 961/678,131/598 is 1/202722
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 678,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,598) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(678,598) = ( 678 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(678,598) = 405444 / 2
LCM(678,598) = 202722
