Lets's calculate LCM of 529,784
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 414736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/414736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5246/529,6582/784 is 2/414736
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 529,784 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(529,784) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(529,784) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(529,784) = ( 529 × 784 ) / 1
LCM(529,784) = 414736 / 1
LCM(529,784) = 414736
