1,11,677,7447
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 462,7447 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 462,7447 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 263,590
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 155170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/155170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 462/263,7447/590 is 11/155170
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 263,590 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(263,590) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(263,590) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(263,590) = ( 263 × 590 ) / 1
LCM(263,590) = 155170 / 1
LCM(263,590) = 155170
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
