Lets's calculate LCM of 249,7796
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1941204
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 64/1941204
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7296/249,9536/7796 is 64/1941204
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 249,7796 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(249,7796) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(249,7796) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(249,7796) = ( 249 × 7796 ) / 1
LCM(249,7796) = 1941204 / 1
LCM(249,7796) = 1941204
