Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3744,6992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3744,6992 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 656,6403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4200368
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/4200368
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3744/656,6992/6403 is 16/4200368
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 656,6403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,6403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,6403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,6403) = ( 656 × 6403 ) / 1
LCM(656,6403) = 4200368 / 1
LCM(656,6403) = 4200368
