Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1099,4087 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1099,4087 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 536,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 529032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/529032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1099/536,4087/987 is 1/529032
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 536,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(536,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(536,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(536,987) = ( 536 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(536,987) = 529032 / 1
LCM(536,987) = 529032
