So the greatest common factor 7472,1869 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,757
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 199848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/199848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7472/264,1869/757 is 1/199848
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 264,757 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,757) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,757) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(264,757) = ( 264 × 757 ) / 1
LCM(264,757) = 199848 / 1
LCM(264,757) = 199848
