Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3287,5494 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3287,5494 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 499,2968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1481032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1481032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3287/499,5494/2968 is 1/1481032
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 499,2968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(499,2968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(499,2968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(499,2968) = ( 499 × 2968 ) / 1
LCM(499,2968) = 1481032 / 1
LCM(499,2968) = 1481032
