Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7548,8496 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7548,8496 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 458,715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 327470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/327470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7548/458,8496/715 is 12/327470
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 458,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(458,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(458,715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(458,715) = ( 458 × 715 ) / 1
LCM(458,715) = 327470 / 1
LCM(458,715) = 327470
