So the greatest common factor 389,229 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 564,287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 161868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/161868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 389/564,229/287 is 1/161868
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 564,287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(564,287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(564,287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(564,287) = ( 564 × 287 ) / 1
LCM(564,287) = 161868 / 1
LCM(564,287) = 161868
