:1,3881
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5738,3881 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5738,3881 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,985
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 327020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/327020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5738/332,3881/985 is 1/327020
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 332,985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,985) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,985) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,985) = ( 332 × 985 ) / 1
LCM(332,985) = 327020 / 1
LCM(332,985) = 327020
