Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3627,4906 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3627,4906 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 971,5978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5804638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5804638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3627/971,4906/5978 is 1/5804638
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 971,5978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,5978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,5978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,5978) = ( 971 × 5978 ) / 1
LCM(971,5978) = 5804638 / 1
LCM(971,5978) = 5804638
