So the greatest common factor 2584,2572 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,6331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4026516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4026516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2584/636,2572/6331 is 4/4026516
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 636,6331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,6331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,6331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,6331) = ( 636 × 6331 ) / 1
LCM(636,6331) = 4026516 / 1
LCM(636,6331) = 4026516
