Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 879,5007 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 879,5007 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 889,4584
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4075176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4075176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/889,5007/4584 is 3/4075176
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 889,4584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(889,4584) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(889,4584) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(889,4584) = ( 889 × 4584 ) / 1
LCM(889,4584) = 4075176 / 1
LCM(889,4584) = 4075176
