Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1259,3601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1259,3601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 448,5637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2525376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2525376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1259/448,3601/5637 is 1/2525376
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 448,5637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(448,5637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(448,5637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(448,5637) = ( 448 × 5637 ) / 1
LCM(448,5637) = 2525376 / 1
LCM(448,5637) = 2525376
