Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1577,5851 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1577,5851 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 542,7643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4142506
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4142506
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1577/542,5851/7643 is 1/4142506
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 542,7643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,7643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,7643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,7643) = ( 542 × 7643 ) / 1
LCM(542,7643) = 4142506 / 1
LCM(542,7643) = 4142506
