Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 908,272 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 908,272 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 5525,9239
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 51045475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/51045475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 908/5525,272/9239 is 4/51045475
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 5525,9239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5525,9239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5525,9239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(5525,9239) = ( 5525 × 9239 ) / 1
LCM(5525,9239) = 51045475 / 1
LCM(5525,9239) = 51045475
