Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5461,4637 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5461,4637 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 242,3511
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 849662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/849662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5461/242,4637/3511 is 1/849662
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 242,3511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,3511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,3511) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,3511) = ( 242 × 3511 ) / 1
LCM(242,3511) = 849662 / 1
LCM(242,3511) = 849662
