So the greatest common factor 6202,2992 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,440
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/11880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6202/27,2992/440 is 2/11880
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 27,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,440) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,440) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(27,440) = ( 27 × 440 ) / 1
LCM(27,440) = 11880 / 1
LCM(27,440) = 11880
