So the greatest common factor 7788,9224 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 741,473
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 350493
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/350493
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7788/741,9224/473 is 4/350493
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 741,473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(741,473) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(741,473) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(741,473) = ( 741 × 473 ) / 1
LCM(741,473) = 350493 / 1
LCM(741,473) = 350493
