Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5218,2549 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5218,2549 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 539,5059
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2726801
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2726801
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5218/539,2549/5059 is 1/2726801
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 539,5059 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,5059) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,5059) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,5059) = ( 539 × 5059 ) / 1
LCM(539,5059) = 2726801 / 1
LCM(539,5059) = 2726801
