So the greatest common factor 2254,4990 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 713,5540
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3950020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3950020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2254/713,4990/5540 is 2/3950020
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 713,5540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(713,5540) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(713,5540) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(713,5540) = ( 713 × 5540 ) / 1
LCM(713,5540) = 3950020 / 1
LCM(713,5540) = 3950020
