Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2359,7121 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2359,7121 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 482,949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 457418
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/457418
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2359/482,7121/949 is 1/457418
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 482,949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(482,949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(482,949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(482,949) = ( 482 × 949 ) / 1
LCM(482,949) = 457418 / 1
LCM(482,949) = 457418
