Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 527,562 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 527,562 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,5504
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 478848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/478848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 527/87,562/5504 is 1/478848
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 87,5504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,5504) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,5504) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,5504) = ( 87 × 5504 ) / 1
LCM(87,5504) = 478848 / 1
LCM(87,5504) = 478848
