So the greatest common factor 920,484 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7271,5996
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 43596916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/43596916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 920/7271,484/5996 is 4/43596916
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 7271,5996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7271,5996) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7271,5996) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(7271,5996) = ( 7271 × 5996 ) / 1
LCM(7271,5996) = 43596916 / 1
LCM(7271,5996) = 43596916
