Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5688,7744 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5688,7744 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,383
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15703
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/15703
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5688/41,7744/383 is 8/15703
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 41,383 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,383) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,383) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,383) = ( 41 × 383 ) / 1
LCM(41,383) = 15703 / 1
LCM(41,383) = 15703
