Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5249,3361 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5249,3361 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,9046
2 | 640, 9046 |
320, 4523 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 320 x 4523 = 2894720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2894720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5249/640,3361/9046 is 1/2894720
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 640,9046 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,9046) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,9046) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(640,9046) = ( 640 × 9046 ) / 2
LCM(640,9046) = 5789440 / 2
LCM(640,9046) = 2894720
