Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 517,573 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 517,573 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 139,536
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 517/139,573/536 is 1/74504
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 139,536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(139,536) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(139,536) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(139,536) = ( 139 × 536 ) / 1
LCM(139,536) = 74504 / 1
LCM(139,536) = 74504
