We found the factors 7716,2736 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7716,2736 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 355,344
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 122120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/122120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7716/355,2736/344 is 12/122120
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 355,344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(355,344) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(355,344) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(355,344) = ( 355 × 344 ) / 1
LCM(355,344) = 122120 / 1
LCM(355,344) = 122120
