Lets's calculate LCM of 729,2692
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1962468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1962468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1846/729,4281/2692 is 1/1962468
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 729,2692 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,2692) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(729,2692) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(729,2692) = ( 729 × 2692 ) / 1
LCM(729,2692) = 1962468 / 1
LCM(729,2692) = 1962468
