Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 524,4881 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 524,4881 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 420,6137
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2577540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2577540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 524/420,4881/6137 is 1/2577540
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 420,6137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,6137) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,6137) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(420,6137) = ( 420 × 6137 ) / 1
LCM(420,6137) = 2577540 / 1
LCM(420,6137) = 2577540
