So the greatest common factor 868,448 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,7573
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 196898
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/196898
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/26,448/7573 is 28/196898
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 26,7573 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,7573) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,7573) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,7573) = ( 26 × 7573 ) / 1
LCM(26,7573) = 196898 / 1
LCM(26,7573) = 196898
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
