So the greatest common factor 582,255 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 953,471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 448863
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/448863
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 582/953,255/471 is 3/448863
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 953,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,471) = ( 953 × 471 ) / 1
LCM(953,471) = 448863 / 1
LCM(953,471) = 448863
