Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 302,859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 302,859 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,5918
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 349162
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/349162
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 302/59,859/5918 is 1/349162
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 59,5918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,5918) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,5918) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,5918) = ( 59 × 5918 ) / 1
LCM(59,5918) = 349162 / 1
LCM(59,5918) = 349162
