Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5251,7253 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5251,7253 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 657,5973
3 | 657, 5973 |
219, 1991 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 219 x 1991 = 1308087
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1308087
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5251/657,7253/5973 is 1/1308087
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 657,5973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(657,5973) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(657,5973) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(657,5973) = ( 657 × 5973 ) / 3
LCM(657,5973) = 3924261 / 3
LCM(657,5973) = 1308087
