Lets's calculate LCM of 749,5358
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4013142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/4013142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 246/749,1681/5358 is 41/4013142
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 749,5358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(749,5358) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(749,5358) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(749,5358) = ( 749 × 5358 ) / 1
LCM(749,5358) = 4013142 / 1
LCM(749,5358) = 4013142
