So the greatest common factor 6456,5132 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,1855
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1274385
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1274385
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6456/687,5132/1855 is 4/1274385
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 687,1855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,1855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,1855) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,1855) = ( 687 × 1855 ) / 1
LCM(687,1855) = 1274385 / 1
LCM(687,1855) = 1274385
