So the greatest common factor 7365,1600 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 642,3989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2560938
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2560938
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7365/642,1600/3989 is 5/2560938
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 642,3989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(642,3989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(642,3989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(642,3989) = ( 642 × 3989 ) / 1
LCM(642,3989) = 2560938 / 1
LCM(642,3989) = 2560938
