Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5527,3132 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5527,3132 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 489,879
3 | 489, 879 |
163, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 163 x 293 = 143277
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/143277
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5527/489,3132/879 is 1/143277
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 489,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,879) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,879) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(489,879) = ( 489 × 879 ) / 3
LCM(489,879) = 429831 / 3
LCM(489,879) = 143277
