We found the factors 7152,4944 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7152,4944 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,8579
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5053031
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/5053031
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7152/589,4944/8579 is 48/5053031
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 589,8579 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,8579) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,8579) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(589,8579) = ( 589 × 8579 ) / 1
LCM(589,8579) = 5053031 / 1
LCM(589,8579) = 5053031
