Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3506,9981 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3506,9981 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,5551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4729452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4729452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3506/852,9981/5551 is 1/4729452
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 852,5551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,5551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,5551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(852,5551) = ( 852 × 5551 ) / 1
LCM(852,5551) = 4729452 / 1
LCM(852,5551) = 4729452
