Now, list down the factors of 3503
:1,31,113,3503
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2461,3503 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2461,3503 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 599,734
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 439666
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/439666
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2461/599,3503/734 is 1/439666
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 599,734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,734) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,734) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,734) = ( 599 × 734 ) / 1
LCM(599,734) = 439666 / 1
LCM(599,734) = 439666
