1,2,1289,2578
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5547,2578 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5547,2578 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 339,4387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1487193
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1487193
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5547/339,2578/4387 is 1/1487193
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 339,4387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(339,4387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(339,4387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(339,4387) = ( 339 × 4387 ) / 1
LCM(339,4387) = 1487193 / 1
LCM(339,4387) = 1487193
