Lets's calculate LCM of 726,4139
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3004914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3004914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3200/726,2766/4139 is 2/3004914
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 726,4139 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,4139) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,4139) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(726,4139) = ( 726 × 4139 ) / 1
LCM(726,4139) = 3004914 / 1
LCM(726,4139) = 3004914
