1,2,4,7,14,19,28,38,76,133,266,532
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 475,532 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 475,532 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 859,525
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 450975
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/450975
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 475/859,532/525 is 19/450975
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 859,525 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(859,525) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(859,525) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(859,525) = ( 859 × 525 ) / 1
LCM(859,525) = 450975 / 1
LCM(859,525) = 450975
