So the greatest common factor 4951,5868 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 864,2873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2482272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2482272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4951/864,5868/2873 is 1/2482272
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 864,2873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(864,2873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(864,2873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(864,2873) = ( 864 × 2873 ) / 1
LCM(864,2873) = 2482272 / 1
LCM(864,2873) = 2482272
