Now, list down the factors of 531
:1,3,9,59,177,531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 149,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 149,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 549,319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175131
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/175131
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 149/549,531/319 is 1/175131
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 549,319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(549,319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(549,319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(549,319) = ( 549 × 319 ) / 1
LCM(549,319) = 175131 / 1
LCM(549,319) = 175131
