Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 557,433 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 557,433 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 556,455
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 252980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/252980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 557/556,433/455 is 1/252980
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 556,455 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(556,455) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(556,455) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(556,455) = ( 556 × 455 ) / 1
LCM(556,455) = 252980 / 1
LCM(556,455) = 252980
