So the greatest common factor 7048,1304 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 317,1472
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 466624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/466624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7048/317,1304/1472 is 8/466624
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 317,1472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(317,1472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(317,1472) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(317,1472) = ( 317 × 1472 ) / 1
LCM(317,1472) = 466624 / 1
LCM(317,1472) = 466624
