Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5345,1785 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5345,1785 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 643,2184
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1404312
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1404312
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5345/643,1785/2184 is 5/1404312
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 643,2184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,2184) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,2184) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,2184) = ( 643 × 2184 ) / 1
LCM(643,2184) = 1404312 / 1
LCM(643,2184) = 1404312
