So the greatest common factor 7237,2576 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 472,814
2 | 472, 814 |
236, 407 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 236 x 407 = 192104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/192104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7237/472,2576/814 is 1/192104
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 472,814 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,814) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,814) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(472,814) = ( 472 × 814 ) / 2
LCM(472,814) = 384208 / 2
LCM(472,814) = 192104
