1,59,89,5251
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8496,5251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8496,5251 is 59.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,518
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 59/23310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8496/45,5251/518 is 59/23310
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 45,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,518) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,518) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,518) = ( 45 × 518 ) / 1
LCM(45,518) = 23310 / 1
LCM(45,518) = 23310
