Lets's calculate LCM of 526,8333
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4383158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4383158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5740/526,7292/8333 is 4/4383158
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 526,8333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(526,8333) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(526,8333) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(526,8333) = ( 526 × 8333 ) / 1
LCM(526,8333) = 4383158 / 1
LCM(526,8333) = 4383158
