1,3,2143,6429
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5840,6429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5840,6429 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 839,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 501722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/501722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5840/839,6429/598 is 1/501722
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 839,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(839,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(839,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(839,598) = ( 839 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(839,598) = 501722 / 1
LCM(839,598) = 501722
