So the greatest common factor 5590,3242 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 407,9301
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3785507
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3785507
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5590/407,3242/9301 is 2/3785507
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 407,9301 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(407,9301) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(407,9301) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(407,9301) = ( 407 × 9301 ) / 1
LCM(407,9301) = 3785507 / 1
LCM(407,9301) = 3785507
