So the greatest common factor 4332,7257 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 371,1361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 504931
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/504931
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4332/371,7257/1361 is 3/504931
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 371,1361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,1361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,1361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,1361) = ( 371 × 1361 ) / 1
LCM(371,1361) = 504931 / 1
LCM(371,1361) = 504931
