Lets's calculate LCM of 661,7762
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5130682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/5130682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7336/661,5304/7762 is 8/5130682
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 661,7762 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,7762) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,7762) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,7762) = ( 661 × 7762 ) / 1
LCM(661,7762) = 5130682 / 1
LCM(661,7762) = 5130682
