1,2,3,6,1493,2986,4479,8958
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8641,8958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8641,8958 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 437,571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 249527
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/249527
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8641/437,8958/571 is 1/249527
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 437,571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(437,571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(437,571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(437,571) = ( 437 × 571 ) / 1
LCM(437,571) = 249527 / 1
LCM(437,571) = 249527
