Lets's calculate LCM of 709,389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 275801
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/275801
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2542/709,9913/389 is 1/275801
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 709,389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(709,389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(709,389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(709,389) = ( 709 × 389 ) / 1
LCM(709,389) = 275801 / 1
LCM(709,389) = 275801
