So the greatest common factor 5678,7032 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 671,1672
11 | 671, 1672 |
61, 152 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 61 x 152 = 101992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/101992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5678/671,7032/1672 is 2/101992
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 671,1672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(671,1672) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(671,1672) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(671,1672) = ( 671 × 1672 ) / 11
LCM(671,1672) = 1121912 / 11
LCM(671,1672) = 101992
