Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3632,1472 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3632,1472 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 513,3884
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1992492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1992492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3632/513,1472/3884 is 16/1992492
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 513,3884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(513,3884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(513,3884) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(513,3884) = ( 513 × 3884 ) / 1
LCM(513,3884) = 1992492 / 1
LCM(513,3884) = 1992492
