Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7996,4994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7996,4994 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 557,413
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230041
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/230041
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7996/557,4994/413 is 2/230041
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 557,413 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,413) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,413) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,413) = ( 557 × 413 ) / 1
LCM(557,413) = 230041 / 1
LCM(557,413) = 230041
