Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5008,5472 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5008,5472 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 763,594
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 453222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/453222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5008/763,5472/594 is 16/453222
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 763,594 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(763,594) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(763,594) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(763,594) = ( 763 × 594 ) / 1
LCM(763,594) = 453222 / 1
LCM(763,594) = 453222
