So the greatest common factor 7714,8572 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 587,312
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 183144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/183144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7714/587,8572/312 is 2/183144
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 587,312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(587,312) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(587,312) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(587,312) = ( 587 × 312 ) / 1
LCM(587,312) = 183144 / 1
LCM(587,312) = 183144
