Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6285,8545 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6285,8545 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/27719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6285/53,8545/523 is 5/27719
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 53,523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,523) = ( 53 × 523 ) / 1
LCM(53,523) = 27719 / 1
LCM(53,523) = 27719
