So the greatest common factor 7642,3226 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 311,4475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1391725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1391725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7642/311,3226/4475 is 2/1391725
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 311,4475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,4475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(311,4475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(311,4475) = ( 311 × 4475 ) / 1
LCM(311,4475) = 1391725 / 1
LCM(311,4475) = 1391725
