Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5217,1128 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5217,1128 is 141.
Lets's calculate LCM of 812,603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 489636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 141/489636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5217/812,1128/603 is 141/489636
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 812,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(812,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(812,603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(812,603) = ( 812 × 603 ) / 1
LCM(812,603) = 489636 / 1
LCM(812,603) = 489636
