Lets's calculate LCM of 716,355
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/254180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4852/716,2992/355 is 4/254180
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 716,355 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,355) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,355) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(716,355) = ( 716 × 355 ) / 1
LCM(716,355) = 254180 / 1
LCM(716,355) = 254180
