We found the factors 589,5485 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 589,5485 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 218,153
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 589/218,5485/153 is 1/33354
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 218,153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(218,153) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(218,153) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(218,153) = ( 218 × 153 ) / 1
LCM(218,153) = 33354 / 1
LCM(218,153) = 33354
