Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 724,4864 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 724,4864 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,565
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 388155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/388155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 724/687,4864/565 is 4/388155
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 687,565 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,565) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,565) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,565) = ( 687 × 565 ) / 1
LCM(687,565) = 388155 / 1
LCM(687,565) = 388155
