So the greatest common factor 7586,2412 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 51757
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/51757
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7586/73,2412/709 is 2/51757
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 73,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,709) = ( 73 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(73,709) = 51757 / 1
LCM(73,709) = 51757
