Lets's calculate LCM of 575,9771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5618325
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/5618325
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7472/575,1520/9771 is 16/5618325
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 575,9771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(575,9771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(575,9771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(575,9771) = ( 575 × 9771 ) / 1
LCM(575,9771) = 5618325 / 1
LCM(575,9771) = 5618325
