Lets's calculate LCM of 816,7741
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6316656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/6316656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5200/816,5372/7741 is 4/6316656
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 816,7741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(816,7741) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(816,7741) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(816,7741) = ( 816 × 7741 ) / 1
LCM(816,7741) = 6316656 / 1
LCM(816,7741) = 6316656
