Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5301,2670 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5301,2670 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 417,416
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 173472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/173472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5301/417,2670/416 is 3/173472
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 417,416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(417,416) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(417,416) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(417,416) = ( 417 × 416 ) / 1
LCM(417,416) = 173472 / 1
LCM(417,416) = 173472
