Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 667,3537 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 667,3537 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,3637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2498619
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2498619
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 667/687,3537/3637 is 1/2498619
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 687,3637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,3637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,3637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,3637) = ( 687 × 3637 ) / 1
LCM(687,3637) = 2498619 / 1
LCM(687,3637) = 2498619
