So the greatest common factor 2420,5504 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 177,4091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 724107
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/724107
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2420/177,5504/4091 is 4/724107
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 177,4091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(177,4091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(177,4091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(177,4091) = ( 177 × 4091 ) / 1
LCM(177,4091) = 724107 / 1
LCM(177,4091) = 724107
