So the greatest common factor 2304,7572 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,2305
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 608520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/608520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2304/264,7572/2305 is 12/608520
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 264,2305 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,2305) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,2305) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(264,2305) = ( 264 × 2305 ) / 1
LCM(264,2305) = 608520 / 1
LCM(264,2305) = 608520
