So the greatest common factor 2586,4708 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 923,7538
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6957574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6957574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2586/923,4708/7538 is 2/6957574
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 923,7538 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(923,7538) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(923,7538) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(923,7538) = ( 923 × 7538 ) / 1
LCM(923,7538) = 6957574 / 1
LCM(923,7538) = 6957574
