Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2364,2571 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2364,2571 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 461,3091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1424951
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1424951
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2364/461,2571/3091 is 3/1424951
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 461,3091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,3091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,3091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,3091) = ( 461 × 3091 ) / 1
LCM(461,3091) = 1424951 / 1
LCM(461,3091) = 1424951
