Lets's calculate LCM of 717,3973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2848641
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2848641
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1734/717,6428/3973 is 2/2848641
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 717,3973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,3973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,3973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(717,3973) = ( 717 × 3973 ) / 1
LCM(717,3973) = 2848641 / 1
LCM(717,3973) = 2848641
