Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5579,1554 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5579,1554 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 871,3564
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3104244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/3104244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5579/871,1554/3564 is 7/3104244
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 871,3564 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,3564) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,3564) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(871,3564) = ( 871 × 3564 ) / 1
LCM(871,3564) = 3104244 / 1
LCM(871,3564) = 3104244
