We found the factors 5237,5809 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5237,5809 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 573,5141
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2945793
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2945793
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5237/573,5809/5141 is 1/2945793
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 573,5141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(573,5141) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(573,5141) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(573,5141) = ( 573 × 5141 ) / 1
LCM(573,5141) = 2945793 / 1
LCM(573,5141) = 2945793
