We found the factors 8900,5560 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8900,5560 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,4091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2618240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/2618240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8900/640,5560/4091 is 20/2618240
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 640,4091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,4091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,4091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(640,4091) = ( 640 × 4091 ) / 1
LCM(640,4091) = 2618240 / 1
LCM(640,4091) = 2618240
