Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 494,6251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 494,6251 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 657,2750
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1806750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/1806750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 494/657,6251/2750 is 19/1806750
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 657,2750 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(657,2750) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(657,2750) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(657,2750) = ( 657 × 2750 ) / 1
LCM(657,2750) = 1806750 / 1
LCM(657,2750) = 1806750
