Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7289,2969 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7289,2969 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 281,7424
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2086144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2086144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7289/281,2969/7424 is 1/2086144
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 281,7424 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,7424) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,7424) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,7424) = ( 281 × 7424 ) / 1
LCM(281,7424) = 2086144 / 1
LCM(281,7424) = 2086144
