:1,359
Now, list down the factors of 154
:1,2,7,11,14,22,77,154
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 359,154 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 359,154 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 511578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/511578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 359/586,154/873 is 1/511578
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 586,873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(586,873) = ( 586 × 873 ) / 1
LCM(586,873) = 511578 / 1
LCM(586,873) = 511578
