Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4779,5616 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4779,5616 is 27.
Lets's calculate LCM of 693,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 408177
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/408177
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4779/693,5616/589 is 27/408177
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 693,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(693,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(693,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(693,589) = ( 693 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(693,589) = 408177 / 1
LCM(693,589) = 408177
