Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 690,370 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 690,370 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 479358
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/479358
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 690/538,370/891 is 10/479358
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 538,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,891) = ( 538 × 891 ) / 1
LCM(538,891) = 479358 / 1
LCM(538,891) = 479358
