So the greatest common factor 2661,3910 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 114622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/114622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2661/446,3910/257 is 1/114622
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 446,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(446,257) = ( 446 × 257 ) / 1
LCM(446,257) = 114622 / 1
LCM(446,257) = 114622
