Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4593,2643 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4593,2643 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 461,4472
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2061592
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2061592
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4593/461,2643/4472 is 3/2061592
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 461,4472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,4472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,4472) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,4472) = ( 461 × 4472 ) / 1
LCM(461,4472) = 2061592 / 1
LCM(461,4472) = 2061592
