Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4379,5162 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4379,5162 is 29.
Lets's calculate LCM of 562,1595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 896390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/896390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4379/562,5162/1595 is 29/896390
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 562,1595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(562,1595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(562,1595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(562,1595) = ( 562 × 1595 ) / 1
LCM(562,1595) = 896390 / 1
LCM(562,1595) = 896390
