Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 562,778 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 562,778 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 520,713
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 370760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/370760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 562/520,778/713 is 2/370760
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 520,713 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(520,713) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(520,713) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(520,713) = ( 520 × 713 ) / 1
LCM(520,713) = 370760 / 1
LCM(520,713) = 370760
