:1,991
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 561,991 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 561,991 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 522,840
2 | 522, 840 |
3 | 261, 420 |
87, 140 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 87 x 140 = 73080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 561/522,991/840 is 1/73080
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 522,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(522,840) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(522,840) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(522,840) = ( 522 × 840 ) / 6
LCM(522,840) = 438480 / 6
LCM(522,840) = 73080
