1,2,4,397,794,1588
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9840,1588 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9840,1588 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 570,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 260490
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/260490
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9840/570,1588/457 is 4/260490
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 570,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(570,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(570,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(570,457) = ( 570 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(570,457) = 260490 / 1
LCM(570,457) = 260490
