So the greatest common factor 7456,4472 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 801,4205
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3368205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/3368205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7456/801,4472/4205 is 8/3368205
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 801,4205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(801,4205) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(801,4205) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(801,4205) = ( 801 × 4205 ) / 1
LCM(801,4205) = 3368205 / 1
LCM(801,4205) = 3368205
