So the greatest common factor 4230,2541 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,5371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2261191
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2261191
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4230/421,2541/5371 is 3/2261191
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 421,5371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,5371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,5371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,5371) = ( 421 × 5371 ) / 1
LCM(421,5371) = 2261191 / 1
LCM(421,5371) = 2261191
