Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5724,3057 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5724,3057 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 425,8291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3523675
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3523675
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5724/425,3057/8291 is 3/3523675
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 425,8291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(425,8291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(425,8291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(425,8291) = ( 425 × 8291 ) / 1
LCM(425,8291) = 3523675 / 1
LCM(425,8291) = 3523675
