So the greatest common factor 4302,6909 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,718
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/29438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4302/41,6909/718 is 3/29438
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 41,718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,718) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,718) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,718) = ( 41 × 718 ) / 1
LCM(41,718) = 29438 / 1
LCM(41,718) = 29438
