We found the factors 3168,2484 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3168,2484 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,2216
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1243176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/1243176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3168/561,2484/2216 is 36/1243176
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 561,2216 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,2216) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(561,2216) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(561,2216) = ( 561 × 2216 ) / 1
LCM(561,2216) = 1243176 / 1
LCM(561,2216) = 1243176
