Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 607,873 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 607,873 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 557,321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178797
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178797
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 607/557,873/321 is 1/178797
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 557,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,321) = ( 557 × 321 ) / 1
LCM(557,321) = 178797 / 1
LCM(557,321) = 178797
