So the greatest common factor 2391,4131 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 729,2390
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1742310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1742310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2391/729,4131/2390 is 3/1742310
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 729,2390 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,2390) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(729,2390) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(729,2390) = ( 729 × 2390 ) / 1
LCM(729,2390) = 1742310 / 1
LCM(729,2390) = 1742310
