So the greatest common factor 5915,9960 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 305,5403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1647915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1647915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5915/305,9960/5403 is 5/1647915
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 305,5403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,5403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,5403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,5403) = ( 305 × 5403 ) / 1
LCM(305,5403) = 1647915 / 1
LCM(305,5403) = 1647915
