Lets's calculate LCM of 53,7319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 387907
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/387907
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 448/53,918/7319 is 2/387907
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 53,7319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,7319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,7319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,7319) = ( 53 × 7319 ) / 1
LCM(53,7319) = 387907 / 1
LCM(53,7319) = 387907
