Lets's calculate LCM of 2902,7475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21692450
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21692450
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 862/2902,756/7475 is 2/21692450
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 2902,7475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2902,7475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2902,7475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2902,7475) = ( 2902 × 7475 ) / 1
LCM(2902,7475) = 21692450 / 1
LCM(2902,7475) = 21692450
