Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5309,1179 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5309,1179 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,2007
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1587537
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1587537
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5309/791,1179/2007 is 1/1587537
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 791,2007 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,2007) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,2007) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,2007) = ( 791 × 2007 ) / 1
LCM(791,2007) = 1587537 / 1
LCM(791,2007) = 1587537
