Lets's calculate LCM of 733,4562
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3343946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3343946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1444/733,7494/4562 is 2/3343946
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 733,4562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(733,4562) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(733,4562) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(733,4562) = ( 733 × 4562 ) / 1
LCM(733,4562) = 3343946 / 1
LCM(733,4562) = 3343946
