Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2228557
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5305/557,2141/4001 is 1/2228557
Least Common Multiple of 557,4001 with GCF Formula
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 557,4001 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,4001) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,4001) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,4001) = ( 557 × 4001 ) / 1
LCM(557,4001) = 2228557 / 1
LCM(557,4001) = 2228557
