Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5368,5834 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5368,5834 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,2127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 916737
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/916737
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5368/431,5834/2127 is 2/916737
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 431,2127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,2127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,2127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,2127) = ( 431 × 2127 ) / 1
LCM(431,2127) = 916737 / 1
LCM(431,2127) = 916737
