Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3123,5590 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3123,5590 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 424,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 415096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/415096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3123/424,5590/979 is 1/415096
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 424,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(424,979) = ( 424 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(424,979) = 415096 / 1
LCM(424,979) = 415096
