Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 544,170 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 544,170 is 34.
Lets's calculate LCM of 270,853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 34/230310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 544/270,170/853 is 34/230310
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 270,853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(270,853) = ( 270 × 853 ) / 1
LCM(270,853) = 230310 / 1
LCM(270,853) = 230310
