Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8736,4080 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8736,4080 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 714,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 711858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/711858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8736/714,4080/997 is 48/711858
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 714,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(714,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(714,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(714,997) = ( 714 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(714,997) = 711858 / 1
LCM(714,997) = 711858
