We found the factors 2638,9576 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2638,9576 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 451,2866
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1292566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1292566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2638/451,9576/2866 is 2/1292566
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 451,2866 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(451,2866) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(451,2866) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(451,2866) = ( 451 × 2866 ) / 1
LCM(451,2866) = 1292566 / 1
LCM(451,2866) = 1292566
