Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5579,4782 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5579,4782 is 797.
Lets's calculate LCM of 979,7345
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7190755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 797/7190755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5579/979,4782/7345 is 797/7190755
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 979,7345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(979,7345) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(979,7345) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(979,7345) = ( 979 × 7345 ) / 1
LCM(979,7345) = 7190755 / 1
LCM(979,7345) = 7190755
