We found the factors 6395,4720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6395,4720 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,5039
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 861669
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/861669
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6395/171,4720/5039 is 5/861669
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 171,5039 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,5039) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,5039) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,5039) = ( 171 × 5039 ) / 1
LCM(171,5039) = 861669 / 1
LCM(171,5039) = 861669
