Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7392,8672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7392,8672 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 624,2371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1479504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/1479504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7392/624,8672/2371 is 32/1479504
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 624,2371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,2371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,2371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(624,2371) = ( 624 × 2371 ) / 1
LCM(624,2371) = 1479504 / 1
LCM(624,2371) = 1479504
