So the greatest common factor 7462,1808 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 541,5596
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3027436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3027436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7462/541,1808/5596 is 2/3027436
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 541,5596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,5596) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,5596) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,5596) = ( 541 × 5596 ) / 1
LCM(541,5596) = 3027436 / 1
LCM(541,5596) = 3027436
