So the greatest common factor 2532,7324 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,9991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2837444
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2837444
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2532/284,7324/9991 is 4/2837444
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 284,9991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,9991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,9991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,9991) = ( 284 × 9991 ) / 1
LCM(284,9991) = 2837444 / 1
LCM(284,9991) = 2837444
