So the greatest common factor 7422,4188 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,1832
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1284232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1284232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7422/701,4188/1832 is 6/1284232
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 701,1832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,1832) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,1832) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,1832) = ( 701 × 1832 ) / 1
LCM(701,1832) = 1284232 / 1
LCM(701,1832) = 1284232
