:1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42,61,122,183,366,427,854,1281,2562
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3903,2562 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3903,2562 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 887,594
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 526878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/526878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3903/887,2562/594 is 3/526878
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 887,594 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,594) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,594) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,594) = ( 887 × 594 ) / 1
LCM(887,594) = 526878 / 1
LCM(887,594) = 526878
