Lets's calculate LCM of 281,5774
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1622494
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1622494
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7288/281,9248/5774 is 8/1622494
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 281,5774 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,5774) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,5774) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,5774) = ( 281 × 5774 ) / 1
LCM(281,5774) = 1622494 / 1
LCM(281,5774) = 1622494
