Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2130,5876 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2130,5876 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,1591
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 637991
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/637991
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2130/401,5876/1591 is 2/637991
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 401,1591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,1591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,1591) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,1591) = ( 401 × 1591 ) / 1
LCM(401,1591) = 637991 / 1
LCM(401,1591) = 637991
