So the greatest common factor 6568,1572 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 705,6437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4538085
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4538085
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6568/705,1572/6437 is 4/4538085
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 705,6437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(705,6437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(705,6437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(705,6437) = ( 705 × 6437 ) / 1
LCM(705,6437) = 4538085 / 1
LCM(705,6437) = 4538085
