We found the factors 2557,5231 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2557,5231 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 292,9047
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2641724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2641724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2557/292,5231/9047 is 1/2641724
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 292,9047 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(292,9047) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(292,9047) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(292,9047) = ( 292 × 9047 ) / 1
LCM(292,9047) = 2641724 / 1
LCM(292,9047) = 2641724
