Lets's calculate LCM of 417,634
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 264378
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/264378
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1657/417,9672/634 is 1/264378
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 417,634 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(417,634) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(417,634) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(417,634) = ( 417 × 634 ) / 1
LCM(417,634) = 264378 / 1
LCM(417,634) = 264378
