So the greatest common factor 640,744 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 103,624
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 64272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/64272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 640/103,744/624 is 8/64272
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 103,624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(103,624) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(103,624) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(103,624) = ( 103 × 624 ) / 1
LCM(103,624) = 64272 / 1
LCM(103,624) = 64272
