Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 449,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 449,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,439
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18877
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18877
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 449/43,959/439 is 1/18877
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 43,439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,439) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,439) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,439) = ( 43 × 439 ) / 1
LCM(43,439) = 18877 / 1
LCM(43,439) = 18877
