Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3328,5048 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3328,5048 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/39538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3328/53,5048/746 is 8/39538
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 53,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,746) = ( 53 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(53,746) = 39538 / 1
LCM(53,746) = 39538
