Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 637,5928 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 637,5928 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 149,579
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86271
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/86271
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 637/149,5928/579 is 13/86271
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 149,579 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(149,579) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(149,579) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(149,579) = ( 149 × 579 ) / 1
LCM(149,579) = 86271 / 1
LCM(149,579) = 86271
