So the greatest common factor 5522,1944 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,649
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27907
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/27907
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5522/43,1944/649 is 2/27907
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 43,649 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,649) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,649) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,649) = ( 43 × 649 ) / 1
LCM(43,649) = 27907 / 1
LCM(43,649) = 27907
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
