Lets's calculate LCM of 743,7229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5371147
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5371147
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1583/743,3950/7229 is 1/5371147
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 743,7229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,7229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,7229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,7229) = ( 743 × 7229 ) / 1
LCM(743,7229) = 5371147 / 1
LCM(743,7229) = 5371147
