So the greatest common factor 7485,5055 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 789,4232
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3339048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/3339048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7485/789,5055/4232 is 15/3339048
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 789,4232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,4232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,4232) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(789,4232) = ( 789 × 4232 ) / 1
LCM(789,4232) = 3339048 / 1
LCM(789,4232) = 3339048
