Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 756,6762 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 756,6762 is 42.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24035
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 42/24035
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 756/55,6762/437 is 42/24035
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 55,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,437) = ( 55 × 437 ) / 1
LCM(55,437) = 24035 / 1
LCM(55,437) = 24035
