So the greatest common factor 7116,1724 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 730,7259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5299070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5299070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7116/730,1724/7259 is 4/5299070
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 730,7259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(730,7259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(730,7259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(730,7259) = ( 730 × 7259 ) / 1
LCM(730,7259) = 5299070 / 1
LCM(730,7259) = 5299070
