So the greatest common factor 4049,5840 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,5882
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5005582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5005582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4049/851,5840/5882 is 1/5005582
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 851,5882 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,5882) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,5882) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,5882) = ( 851 × 5882 ) / 1
LCM(851,5882) = 5005582 / 1
LCM(851,5882) = 5005582
