So the greatest common factor 7426,6368 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 836,1051
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 878636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/878636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7426/836,6368/1051 is 2/878636
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 836,1051 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,1051) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(836,1051) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(836,1051) = ( 836 × 1051 ) / 1
LCM(836,1051) = 878636 / 1
LCM(836,1051) = 878636
