So the greatest common factor 1232,7268 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 711,841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 597951
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/597951
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1232/711,7268/841 is 4/597951
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 711,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(711,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(711,841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(711,841) = ( 711 × 841 ) / 1
LCM(711,841) = 597951 / 1
LCM(711,841) = 597951
