Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 494,519 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 494,519 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,1544
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 134328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/134328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 494/87,519/1544 is 1/134328
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 87,1544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,1544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,1544) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,1544) = ( 87 × 1544 ) / 1
LCM(87,1544) = 134328 / 1
LCM(87,1544) = 134328
