Lets's calculate LCM of 417,7048
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2939016
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2939016
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1729/417,1687/7048 is 7/2939016
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 417,7048 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(417,7048) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(417,7048) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(417,7048) = ( 417 × 7048 ) / 1
LCM(417,7048) = 2939016 / 1
LCM(417,7048) = 2939016
