So the greatest common factor 289,466 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 857,740
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 634180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/634180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 289/857,466/740 is 1/634180
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 857,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,740) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(857,740) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(857,740) = ( 857 × 740 ) / 1
LCM(857,740) = 634180 / 1
LCM(857,740) = 634180
