Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 599,971 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 599,971 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 581,337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 195797
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/195797
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 599/581,971/337 is 1/195797
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 581,337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(581,337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(581,337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(581,337) = ( 581 × 337 ) / 1
LCM(581,337) = 195797 / 1
LCM(581,337) = 195797
