1,2,2851,5702
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7296,5702 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7296,5702 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,537
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26313
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/26313
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7296/49,5702/537 is 2/26313
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 49,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,537) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,537) = ( 49 × 537 ) / 1
LCM(49,537) = 26313 / 1
LCM(49,537) = 26313
