So the greatest common factor 5546,1990 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 631,5111
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3225041
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3225041
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5546/631,1990/5111 is 2/3225041
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 631,5111 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(631,5111) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(631,5111) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(631,5111) = ( 631 × 5111 ) / 1
LCM(631,5111) = 3225041 / 1
LCM(631,5111) = 3225041
