Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 523,118 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 523,118 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 593,245
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145285
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145285
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 523/593,118/245 is 1/145285
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 593,245 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(593,245) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(593,245) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(593,245) = ( 593 × 245 ) / 1
LCM(593,245) = 145285 / 1
LCM(593,245) = 145285
