Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5482,6584 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5482,6584 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 639,5911
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3777129
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3777129
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5482/639,6584/5911 is 2/3777129
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 639,5911 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(639,5911) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(639,5911) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(639,5911) = ( 639 × 5911 ) / 1
LCM(639,5911) = 3777129 / 1
LCM(639,5911) = 3777129
