So the greatest common factor 560,156 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,1782
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 76626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/76626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 560/43,156/1782 is 4/76626
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 43,1782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,1782) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,1782) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,1782) = ( 43 × 1782 ) / 1
LCM(43,1782) = 76626 / 1
LCM(43,1782) = 76626
