So the greatest common factor 6424,8292 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,133
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/9576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6424/72,8292/133 is 4/9576
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 72,133 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,133) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,133) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,133) = ( 72 × 133 ) / 1
LCM(72,133) = 9576 / 1
LCM(72,133) = 9576
