So the greatest common factor 7132,6704 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 281,7376
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2072656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2072656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7132/281,6704/7376 is 4/2072656
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 281,7376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,7376) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,7376) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,7376) = ( 281 × 7376 ) / 1
LCM(281,7376) = 2072656 / 1
LCM(281,7376) = 2072656
