Lets's calculate LCM of 791,3476
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2749516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2749516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1292/791,3746/3476 is 2/2749516
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 791,3476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,3476) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,3476) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,3476) = ( 791 × 3476 ) / 1
LCM(791,3476) = 2749516 / 1
LCM(791,3476) = 2749516
