:1,5179
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8202,5179 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8202,5179 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 531,638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 338778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/338778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8202/531,5179/638 is 1/338778
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 531,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(531,638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(531,638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(531,638) = ( 531 × 638 ) / 1
LCM(531,638) = 338778 / 1
LCM(531,638) = 338778
