:1,53,2809
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2981,2809 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2981,2809 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 637,4684
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2983708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2983708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2981/637,2809/4684 is 1/2983708
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 637,4684 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,4684) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,4684) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,4684) = ( 637 × 4684 ) / 1
LCM(637,4684) = 2983708 / 1
LCM(637,4684) = 2983708
