We found the factors 7340,5340 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7340,5340 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 526,3433
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1805758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/1805758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7340/526,5340/3433 is 20/1805758
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 526,3433 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(526,3433) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(526,3433) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(526,3433) = ( 526 × 3433 ) / 1
LCM(526,3433) = 1805758 / 1
LCM(526,3433) = 1805758
