Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 469,187 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 469,187 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,529
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 338560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/338560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 469/640,187/529 is 1/338560
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 640,529 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,529) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,529) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(640,529) = ( 640 × 529 ) / 1
LCM(640,529) = 338560 / 1
LCM(640,529) = 338560
