Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8528,4979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8528,4979 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/9624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8528/24,4979/401 is 13/9624
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 24,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,401) = ( 24 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(24,401) = 9624 / 1
LCM(24,401) = 9624
