Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5300,7430 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5300,7430 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 492,811
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 399012
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/399012
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5300/492,7430/811 is 10/399012
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 492,811 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,811) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,811) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(492,811) = ( 492 × 811 ) / 1
LCM(492,811) = 399012 / 1
LCM(492,811) = 399012
