:1,577
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 860,577 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 860,577 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 860/15,577/493 is 1/7395
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 15,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,493) = ( 15 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(15,493) = 7395 / 1
LCM(15,493) = 7395
