So the greatest common factor 7124,3162 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 89,414
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7124/89,3162/414 is 2/36846
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 89,414 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,414) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,414) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,414) = ( 89 × 414 ) / 1
LCM(89,414) = 36846 / 1
LCM(89,414) = 36846
