We found the factors 132,385 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 132,385 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 6792,8609
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58472328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/58472328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 132/6792,385/8609 is 11/58472328
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 6792,8609 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6792,8609) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6792,8609) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(6792,8609) = ( 6792 × 8609 ) / 1
LCM(6792,8609) = 58472328 / 1
LCM(6792,8609) = 58472328
