We found the factors 285,5876 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 285,5876 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 877,1416
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1241832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1241832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 285/877,5876/1416 is 1/1241832
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 877,1416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(877,1416) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(877,1416) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(877,1416) = ( 877 × 1416 ) / 1
LCM(877,1416) = 1241832 / 1
LCM(877,1416) = 1241832
