:1,2,4,1489,2978,5956
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3993,5956 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3993,5956 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 554,907
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 502478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/502478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3993/554,5956/907 is 1/502478
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 554,907 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(554,907) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(554,907) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(554,907) = ( 554 × 907 ) / 1
LCM(554,907) = 502478 / 1
LCM(554,907) = 502478
