Lets's calculate LCM of 779,295
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 229805
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/229805
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3536/779,9388/295 is 4/229805
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 779,295 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(779,295) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(779,295) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(779,295) = ( 779 × 295 ) / 1
LCM(779,295) = 229805 / 1
LCM(779,295) = 229805
