Now, list down the factors of 6630
:1,2,3,5,6,10,13,15,17,26,30,34,39,51,65,78,85,102,130,170,195,221,255,390,442,510,663,1105,1326,2210,3315,6630
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6357,6630 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6357,6630 is 39.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20377
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 39/20377
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6357/41,6630/497 is 39/20377
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 41,497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,497) = ( 41 × 497 ) / 1
LCM(41,497) = 20377 / 1
LCM(41,497) = 20377
