Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1304,8884 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1304,8884 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 559,2883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1611597
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1611597
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1304/559,8884/2883 is 4/1611597
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 559,2883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,2883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,2883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,2883) = ( 559 × 2883 ) / 1
LCM(559,2883) = 1611597 / 1
LCM(559,2883) = 1611597
