Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 344,3672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 344,3672 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 763,815
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 621845
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/621845
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 344/763,3672/815 is 8/621845
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 763,815 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(763,815) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(763,815) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(763,815) = ( 763 × 815 ) / 1
LCM(763,815) = 621845 / 1
LCM(763,815) = 621845
