So the greatest common factor 1032,5246 is 86.
Lets's calculate LCM of 404,7333
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2962532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 86/2962532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1032/404,5246/7333 is 86/2962532
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 404,7333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(404,7333) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(404,7333) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(404,7333) = ( 404 × 7333 ) / 1
LCM(404,7333) = 2962532 / 1
LCM(404,7333) = 2962532
