So the greatest common factor 5330,7462 is 1066.
Lets's calculate LCM of 373,1968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 734064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1066/734064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5330/373,7462/1968 is 1066/734064
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 373,1968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,1968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,1968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,1968) = ( 373 × 1968 ) / 1
LCM(373,1968) = 734064 / 1
LCM(373,1968) = 734064
