Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 982,597 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 982,597 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 527,873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 460071
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/460071
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 982/527,597/873 is 1/460071
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 527,873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(527,873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(527,873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(527,873) = ( 527 × 873 ) / 1
LCM(527,873) = 460071 / 1
LCM(527,873) = 460071
