Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 420,2163 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 420,2163 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 481,5647
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2716207
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/2716207
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 420/481,2163/5647 is 21/2716207
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 481,5647 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(481,5647) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(481,5647) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(481,5647) = ( 481 × 5647 ) / 1
LCM(481,5647) = 2716207 / 1
LCM(481,5647) = 2716207
