Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5656,7462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5656,7462 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 787,945
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 743715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/743715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5656/787,7462/945 is 14/743715
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 787,945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,945) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,945) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,945) = ( 787 × 945 ) / 1
LCM(787,945) = 743715 / 1
LCM(787,945) = 743715
