So the greatest common factor 1660,2964 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 732,3581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2621292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2621292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1660/732,2964/3581 is 4/2621292
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 732,3581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(732,3581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(732,3581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(732,3581) = ( 732 × 3581 ) / 1
LCM(732,3581) = 2621292 / 1
LCM(732,3581) = 2621292
