Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7976,5116 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7976,5116 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,655
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 34715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/34715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7976/53,5116/655 is 4/34715
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 53,655 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,655) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,655) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,655) = ( 53 × 655 ) / 1
LCM(53,655) = 34715 / 1
LCM(53,655) = 34715
