We found the factors 4991,4550 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4991,4550 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 760,5751
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4370760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/4370760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4991/760,4550/5751 is 7/4370760
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 760,5751 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(760,5751) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(760,5751) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(760,5751) = ( 760 × 5751 ) / 1
LCM(760,5751) = 4370760 / 1
LCM(760,5751) = 4370760
