Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7559,5005 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7559,5005 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 259,978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 253302
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/253302
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7559/259,5005/978 is 1/253302
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 259,978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(259,978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(259,978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(259,978) = ( 259 × 978 ) / 1
LCM(259,978) = 253302 / 1
LCM(259,978) = 253302
