Lets's calculate LCM of 743,165
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 122595
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/122595
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4672/743,3694/165 is 2/122595
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 743,165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,165) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,165) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,165) = ( 743 × 165 ) / 1
LCM(743,165) = 122595 / 1
LCM(743,165) = 122595
