Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 55,8284 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 55,8284 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,5662
19 | 589, 5662 |
31, 298 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 31 x 298 = 175522
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/175522
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 55/589,8284/5662 is 1/175522
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 589,5662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,5662) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,5662) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(589,5662) = ( 589 × 5662 ) / 19
LCM(589,5662) = 3334918 / 19
LCM(589,5662) = 175522
