Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4977,9891 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4977,9891 is 63.
Lets's calculate LCM of 469,559
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 262171
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 63/262171
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4977/469,9891/559 is 63/262171
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 469,559 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,559) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,559) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,559) = ( 469 × 559 ) / 1
LCM(469,559) = 262171 / 1
LCM(469,559) = 262171
