1,2,2729,5458
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2930,5458 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2930,5458 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 290,541
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156890
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/156890
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2930/290,5458/541 is 2/156890
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 290,541 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,541) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,541) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(290,541) = ( 290 × 541 ) / 1
LCM(290,541) = 156890 / 1
LCM(290,541) = 156890
