So the greatest common factor 3712,4724 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 768,3475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2668800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2668800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3712/768,4724/3475 is 4/2668800
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 768,3475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,3475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,3475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(768,3475) = ( 768 × 3475 ) / 1
LCM(768,3475) = 2668800 / 1
LCM(768,3475) = 2668800
