Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4961,4177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4961,4177 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 379,1594
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 604126
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/604126
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4961/379,4177/1594 is 1/604126
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 379,1594 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(379,1594) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(379,1594) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(379,1594) = ( 379 × 1594 ) / 1
LCM(379,1594) = 604126 / 1
LCM(379,1594) = 604126
