Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7421,4577 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7421,4577 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,1535
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 887230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/887230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7421/578,4577/1535 is 1/887230
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 578,1535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,1535) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,1535) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(578,1535) = ( 578 × 1535 ) / 1
LCM(578,1535) = 887230 / 1
LCM(578,1535) = 887230
