We found the factors 5594,1506 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5594,1506 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 408,575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 234600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/234600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5594/408,1506/575 is 2/234600
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 408,575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(408,575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(408,575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(408,575) = ( 408 × 575 ) / 1
LCM(408,575) = 234600 / 1
LCM(408,575) = 234600
