Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 415,887 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 415,887 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 521,374
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/194854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 415/521,887/374 is 1/194854
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 521,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(521,374) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(521,374) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(521,374) = ( 521 × 374 ) / 1
LCM(521,374) = 194854 / 1
LCM(521,374) = 194854
