So the greatest common factor 652,856 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,788
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 103228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/103228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 652/131,856/788 is 4/103228
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 131,788 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,788) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,788) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,788) = ( 131 × 788 ) / 1
LCM(131,788) = 103228 / 1
LCM(131,788) = 103228
