Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 982,857 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 982,857 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,7072
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 417248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/417248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 982/59,857/7072 is 1/417248
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 59,7072 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,7072) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,7072) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,7072) = ( 59 × 7072 ) / 1
LCM(59,7072) = 417248 / 1
LCM(59,7072) = 417248
