Lets's calculate GCF of 5932,1415
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 5932
:1,2,4,1483,2966,5932
Now, list down the factors of 1415
:1,5,283,1415
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5932,1415 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5932,1415 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203863
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/203863
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5932/473,1415/431 is 1/203863
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 473,431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,431) = ( 473 × 431 ) / 1
LCM(473,431) = 203863 / 1
LCM(473,431) = 203863
