Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5960,4084 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5960,4084 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,410
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230010
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/230010
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5960/561,4084/410 is 4/230010
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 561,410 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,410) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(561,410) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(561,410) = ( 561 × 410 ) / 1
LCM(561,410) = 230010 / 1
LCM(561,410) = 230010
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
