So the greatest common factor 5452,3196 is 188.
Lets's calculate LCM of 761,9852
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7497372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 188/7497372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5452/761,3196/9852 is 188/7497372
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 761,9852 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(761,9852) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(761,9852) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(761,9852) = ( 761 × 9852 ) / 1
LCM(761,9852) = 7497372 / 1
LCM(761,9852) = 7497372
