Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4696,2132 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4696,2132 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 617,714
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 440538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/440538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4696/617,2132/714 is 4/440538
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 617,714 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,714) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,714) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,714) = ( 617 × 714 ) / 1
LCM(617,714) = 440538 / 1
LCM(617,714) = 440538
