Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3248,7896 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3248,7896 is 56.
Lets's calculate LCM of 754,6871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5180734
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 56/5180734
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3248/754,7896/6871 is 56/5180734
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 754,6871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(754,6871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(754,6871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(754,6871) = ( 754 × 6871 ) / 1
LCM(754,6871) = 5180734 / 1
LCM(754,6871) = 5180734
