Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1087,2474 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1087,2474 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 557,948
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 528036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/528036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1087/557,2474/948 is 1/528036
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 557,948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,948) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,948) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,948) = ( 557 × 948 ) / 1
LCM(557,948) = 528036 / 1
LCM(557,948) = 528036
