So the greatest common factor 5133,6630 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,355
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/14910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5133/42,6630/355 is 3/14910
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 42,355 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,355) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,355) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(42,355) = ( 42 × 355 ) / 1
LCM(42,355) = 14910 / 1
LCM(42,355) = 14910
