We found the factors 946,5313 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 946,5313 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,490
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/21070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 946/43,5313/490 is 11/21070
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 43,490 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,490) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,490) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,490) = ( 43 × 490 ) / 1
LCM(43,490) = 21070 / 1
LCM(43,490) = 21070
