Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 532,6422 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 532,6422 is 38.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,992
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 60512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 38/60512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 532/61,6422/992 is 38/60512
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 61,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,992) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,992) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,992) = ( 61 × 992 ) / 1
LCM(61,992) = 60512 / 1
LCM(61,992) = 60512
