Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7608,5736 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7608,5736 is 24.
Lets's calculate LCM of 880,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 428560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/428560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7608/880,5736/487 is 24/428560
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 880,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(880,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(880,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(880,487) = ( 880 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(880,487) = 428560 / 1
LCM(880,487) = 428560
