Lets's calculate LCM of 817,732
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 598044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/598044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2945/817,3553/732 is 19/598044
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 817,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(817,732) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(817,732) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(817,732) = ( 817 × 732 ) / 1
LCM(817,732) = 598044 / 1
LCM(817,732) = 598044
