Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 265,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 265,437 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 269,494
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132886
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/132886
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 265/269,437/494 is 1/132886
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 269,494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(269,494) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(269,494) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(269,494) = ( 269 × 494 ) / 1
LCM(269,494) = 132886 / 1
LCM(269,494) = 132886
