So the greatest common factor 7904,3184 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 514,897
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 461058
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/461058
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7904/514,3184/897 is 16/461058
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 514,897 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(514,897) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(514,897) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(514,897) = ( 514 × 897 ) / 1
LCM(514,897) = 461058 / 1
LCM(514,897) = 461058
