So the greatest common factor 6662,7170 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 737,772
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 568964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/568964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6662/737,7170/772 is 2/568964
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 737,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,772) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,772) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,772) = ( 737 × 772 ) / 1
LCM(737,772) = 568964 / 1
LCM(737,772) = 568964
