We found the factors 2909,5189 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2909,5189 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 871,898
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 782158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/782158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2909/871,5189/898 is 1/782158
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 871,898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,898) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,898) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(871,898) = ( 871 × 898 ) / 1
LCM(871,898) = 782158 / 1
LCM(871,898) = 782158
