Lets's calculate LCM of 434,5557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2411738
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2411738
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1723/434,5378/5557 is 1/2411738
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 434,5557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(434,5557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(434,5557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(434,5557) = ( 434 × 5557 ) / 1
LCM(434,5557) = 2411738 / 1
LCM(434,5557) = 2411738
