So the greatest common factor 742,7575 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 292,273
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 79716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/79716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 742/292,7575/273 is 1/79716
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 292,273 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(292,273) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(292,273) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(292,273) = ( 292 × 273 ) / 1
LCM(292,273) = 79716 / 1
LCM(292,273) = 79716
