So the greatest common factor 7648,1636 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 875,3972
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3475500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3475500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7648/875,1636/3972 is 4/3475500
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 875,3972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(875,3972) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(875,3972) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(875,3972) = ( 875 × 3972 ) / 1
LCM(875,3972) = 3475500 / 1
LCM(875,3972) = 3475500
