Lets's calculate LCM of 619,1457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 901883
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/901883
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7248/619,7978/1457 is 2/901883
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 619,1457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(619,1457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(619,1457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(619,1457) = ( 619 × 1457 ) / 1
LCM(619,1457) = 901883 / 1
LCM(619,1457) = 901883
