Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1532,9216 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1532,9216 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 541,5598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3028518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3028518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1532/541,9216/5598 is 4/3028518
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 541,5598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,5598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,5598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,5598) = ( 541 × 5598 ) / 1
LCM(541,5598) = 3028518 / 1
LCM(541,5598) = 3028518
