We found the factors 7440,6672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7440,6672 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 634,7937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5032058
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/5032058
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7440/634,6672/7937 is 48/5032058
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 634,7937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(634,7937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(634,7937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(634,7937) = ( 634 × 7937 ) / 1
LCM(634,7937) = 5032058 / 1
LCM(634,7937) = 5032058
