Lets's calculate LCM of 737,696
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 512952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/512952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 430/737,596/696 is 2/512952
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 737,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,696) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,696) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,696) = ( 737 × 696 ) / 1
LCM(737,696) = 512952 / 1
LCM(737,696) = 512952
