Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 176,358 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 176,358 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 559,380
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 212420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/212420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 176/559,358/380 is 2/212420
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 559,380 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,380) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,380) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,380) = ( 559 × 380 ) / 1
LCM(559,380) = 212420 / 1
LCM(559,380) = 212420
