So the greatest common factor 5132,7202 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 811,496
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 402256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/402256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5132/811,7202/496 is 2/402256
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 811,496 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(811,496) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(811,496) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(811,496) = ( 811 × 496 ) / 1
LCM(811,496) = 402256 / 1
LCM(811,496) = 402256
