Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5441,8802 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5441,8802 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 475,721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 342475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/342475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5441/475,8802/721 is 1/342475
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 475,721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(475,721) = ( 475 × 721 ) / 1
LCM(475,721) = 342475 / 1
LCM(475,721) = 342475
