Lets's calculate LCM of 468,7249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3392532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3392532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7374/468,5869/7249 is 1/3392532
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 468,7249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,7249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,7249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(468,7249) = ( 468 × 7249 ) / 1
LCM(468,7249) = 3392532 / 1
LCM(468,7249) = 3392532
