We found the factors 7378,3814 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7378,3814 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 288,1739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 500832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/500832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7378/288,3814/1739 is 2/500832
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 288,1739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,1739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,1739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(288,1739) = ( 288 × 1739 ) / 1
LCM(288,1739) = 500832 / 1
LCM(288,1739) = 500832
