We found the factors 595,4840 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 595,4840 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 879,844
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 741876
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/741876
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 595/879,4840/844 is 5/741876
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 879,844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,844) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,844) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,844) = ( 879 × 844 ) / 1
LCM(879,844) = 741876 / 1
LCM(879,844) = 741876
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
