Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 529,387 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 529,387 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 901,196
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 176596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/176596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 529/901,387/196 is 1/176596
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 901,196 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,196) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,196) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,196) = ( 901 × 196 ) / 1
LCM(901,196) = 176596 / 1
LCM(901,196) = 176596
