Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2978,4771 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2978,4771 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 116,5015
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 581740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/581740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2978/116,4771/5015 is 1/581740
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 116,5015 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(116,5015) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(116,5015) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(116,5015) = ( 116 × 5015 ) / 1
LCM(116,5015) = 581740 / 1
LCM(116,5015) = 581740
