Lets's calculate LCM of 377,739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 278603
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/278603
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4496/377,7860/739 is 4/278603
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 377,739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(377,739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(377,739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(377,739) = ( 377 × 739 ) / 1
LCM(377,739) = 278603 / 1
LCM(377,739) = 278603
