So the greatest common factor 7442,4544 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,354
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27258
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/27258
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7442/77,4544/354 is 2/27258
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 77,354 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,354) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,354) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,354) = ( 77 × 354 ) / 1
LCM(77,354) = 27258 / 1
LCM(77,354) = 27258
