Lets's calculate LCM of 473,2207
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1043911
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1043911
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7478/473,7154/2207 is 2/1043911
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 473,2207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,2207) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,2207) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,2207) = ( 473 × 2207 ) / 1
LCM(473,2207) = 1043911 / 1
LCM(473,2207) = 1043911
