Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1584,8970 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1584,8970 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 659,8585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5657515
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/5657515
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1584/659,8970/8585 is 6/5657515
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 659,8585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(659,8585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(659,8585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(659,8585) = ( 659 × 8585 ) / 1
LCM(659,8585) = 5657515 / 1
LCM(659,8585) = 5657515
