Lets's calculate LCM of 72,457

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32904

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32904

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 764/72,542/457 is 2/32904

Least Common Multiple of 72,457 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 72,457 with GCF Formula

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 72,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(72,457) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(72,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(72,457) = ( 72 × 457 ) / 1

LCM(72,457) = 32904 / 1

LCM(72,457) = 32904
