:1,2,3,6,19,38,53,57,106,114,159,318,1007,2014,3021,6042
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8869,6042 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8869,6042 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 500,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 266500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/266500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8869/500,6042/533 is 1/266500
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 500,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(500,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(500,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(500,533) = ( 500 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(500,533) = 266500 / 1
LCM(500,533) = 266500
