So the greatest common factor 5886,3971 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 433,4604
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1993532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1993532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5886/433,3971/4604 is 1/1993532
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 433,4604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(433,4604) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(433,4604) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(433,4604) = ( 433 × 4604 ) / 1
LCM(433,4604) = 1993532 / 1
LCM(433,4604) = 1993532
