We found the factors 7359,5859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7359,5859 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 461,9626
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4437586
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4437586
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7359/461,5859/9626 is 3/4437586
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 461,9626 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,9626) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,9626) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,9626) = ( 461 × 9626 ) / 1
LCM(461,9626) = 4437586 / 1
LCM(461,9626) = 4437586
