Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4993,6731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4993,6731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 490,431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 211190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/211190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4993/490,6731/431 is 1/211190
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 490,431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(490,431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(490,431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(490,431) = ( 490 × 431 ) / 1
LCM(490,431) = 211190 / 1
LCM(490,431) = 211190
