Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1194,3228 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1194,3228 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,289
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17051
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/17051
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1194/59,3228/289 is 6/17051
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 59,289 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,289) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,289) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,289) = ( 59 × 289 ) / 1
LCM(59,289) = 17051 / 1
LCM(59,289) = 17051
