Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5865,2540 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5865,2540 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 322,1921
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 618562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/618562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5865/322,2540/1921 is 5/618562
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 322,1921 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(322,1921) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(322,1921) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(322,1921) = ( 322 × 1921 ) / 1
LCM(322,1921) = 618562 / 1
LCM(322,1921) = 618562
