Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5401,5699 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5401,5699 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 454,1973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 895742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/895742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5401/454,5699/1973 is 1/895742
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 454,1973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,1973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,1973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(454,1973) = ( 454 × 1973 ) / 1
LCM(454,1973) = 895742 / 1
LCM(454,1973) = 895742
