We found the factors 7455,7185 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7455,7185 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 496,4197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2081712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/2081712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7455/496,7185/4197 is 15/2081712
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 496,4197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,4197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,4197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(496,4197) = ( 496 × 4197 ) / 1
LCM(496,4197) = 2081712 / 1
LCM(496,4197) = 2081712
