:1,3,1759,5277
Now, list down the factors of 1137
:1,3,379,1137
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5277,1137 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5277,1137 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 571,544
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 310624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/310624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5277/571,1137/544 is 3/310624
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 571,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,544) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,544) = ( 571 × 544 ) / 1
LCM(571,544) = 310624 / 1
LCM(571,544) = 310624
