Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 523,227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 523,227 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,5872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 205520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/205520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 523/35,227/5872 is 1/205520
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 35,5872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,5872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,5872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,5872) = ( 35 × 5872 ) / 1
LCM(35,5872) = 205520 / 1
LCM(35,5872) = 205520
