:1,281
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 518,281 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 518,281 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 133,880
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 117040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/117040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 518/133,281/880 is 1/117040
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 133,880 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(133,880) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(133,880) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(133,880) = ( 133 × 880 ) / 1
LCM(133,880) = 117040 / 1
LCM(133,880) = 117040
