So the greatest common factor 1728,9802 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,451
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1728/47,9802/451 is 2/21197
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 47,451 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,451) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,451) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,451) = ( 47 × 451 ) / 1
LCM(47,451) = 21197 / 1
LCM(47,451) = 21197
