Lets's calculate LCM of 717,4468
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3203556
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3203556
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4714/717,8542/4468 is 2/3203556
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 717,4468 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,4468) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,4468) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(717,4468) = ( 717 × 4468 ) / 1
LCM(717,4468) = 3203556 / 1
LCM(717,4468) = 3203556
