Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1072,8552 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1072,8552 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 500,9091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4545500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/4545500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1072/500,8552/9091 is 8/4545500
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 500,9091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(500,9091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(500,9091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(500,9091) = ( 500 × 9091 ) / 1
LCM(500,9091) = 4545500 / 1
LCM(500,9091) = 4545500
