Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5575,2916 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5575,2916 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,869
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5575/18,2916/869 is 1/15642
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 18,869 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,869) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,869) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(18,869) = ( 18 × 869 ) / 1
LCM(18,869) = 15642 / 1
LCM(18,869) = 15642
