We found the factors 5891,4960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5891,4960 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 893,243
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 216999
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/216999
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5891/893,4960/243 is 1/216999
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 893,243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(893,243) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(893,243) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(893,243) = ( 893 × 243 ) / 1
LCM(893,243) = 216999 / 1
LCM(893,243) = 216999
