We found the factors 265,5141 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 265,5141 is 53.
Lets's calculate LCM of 643,8541
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5491863
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 53/5491863
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 265/643,5141/8541 is 53/5491863
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 643,8541 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,8541) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,8541) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,8541) = ( 643 × 8541 ) / 1
LCM(643,8541) = 5491863 / 1
LCM(643,8541) = 5491863
