Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5518,2804 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5518,2804 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 820,569
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 466580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/466580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5518/820,2804/569 is 2/466580
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 820,569 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(820,569) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(820,569) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(820,569) = ( 820 × 569 ) / 1
LCM(820,569) = 466580 / 1
LCM(820,569) = 466580
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
