Lets's calculate LCM of 747,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 731313
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/731313
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1585/747,9042/979 is 1/731313
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 747,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(747,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(747,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(747,979) = ( 747 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(747,979) = 731313 / 1
LCM(747,979) = 731313
