Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4898,5971 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4898,5971 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 363,5940
3 | 363, 5940 |
11 | 121, 1980 |
11, 180 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 11 x 11 x 180 = 65340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/65340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4898/363,5971/5940 is 1/65340
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 363,5940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(363,5940) = 33
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(363,5940) x common factors =33 x 1 = 33
LCM(363,5940) = ( 363 × 5940 ) / 33
LCM(363,5940) = 2156220 / 33
LCM(363,5940) = 65340
