We found the factors 5658,8748 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5658,8748 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 731,4221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3085551
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/3085551
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5658/731,8748/4221 is 6/3085551
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 731,4221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(731,4221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(731,4221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(731,4221) = ( 731 × 4221 ) / 1
LCM(731,4221) = 3085551 / 1
LCM(731,4221) = 3085551
