Lets's calculate LCM of 659,1482
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 976638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/976638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7532/659,2394/1482 is 14/976638
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 659,1482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(659,1482) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(659,1482) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(659,1482) = ( 659 × 1482 ) / 1
LCM(659,1482) = 976638 / 1
LCM(659,1482) = 976638
