Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 596,791 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 596,791 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24882
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24882
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 596/39,791/638 is 1/24882
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 39,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(39,638) = ( 39 × 638 ) / 1
LCM(39,638) = 24882 / 1
LCM(39,638) = 24882
