Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2501,3980 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2501,3980 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 534,2197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1173198
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1173198
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2501/534,3980/2197 is 1/1173198
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 534,2197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(534,2197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(534,2197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(534,2197) = ( 534 × 2197 ) / 1
LCM(534,2197) = 1173198 / 1
LCM(534,2197) = 1173198
