Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5921,2993 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5921,2993 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 333,1640
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 546120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/546120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5921/333,2993/1640 is 1/546120
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 333,1640 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(333,1640) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(333,1640) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(333,1640) = ( 333 × 1640 ) / 1
LCM(333,1640) = 546120 / 1
LCM(333,1640) = 546120
