We found the factors 318,1392 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 318,1392 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 892,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 534308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/534308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 318/892,1392/599 is 6/534308
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 892,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(892,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(892,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(892,599) = ( 892 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(892,599) = 534308 / 1
LCM(892,599) = 534308
