Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 974,895 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 974,895 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 531,706
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 374886
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/374886
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 974/531,895/706 is 1/374886
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 531,706 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(531,706) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(531,706) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(531,706) = ( 531 × 706 ) / 1
LCM(531,706) = 374886 / 1
LCM(531,706) = 374886
