Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2938,7039 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2938,7039 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 398,4331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1723738
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1723738
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2938/398,7039/4331 is 1/1723738
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 398,4331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(398,4331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(398,4331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(398,4331) = ( 398 × 4331 ) / 1
LCM(398,4331) = 1723738 / 1
LCM(398,4331) = 1723738
