Lets's calculate LCM of 653,704
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 459712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/459712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5687/653,3948/704 is 47/459712
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 653,704 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(653,704) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(653,704) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(653,704) = ( 653 × 704 ) / 1
LCM(653,704) = 459712 / 1
LCM(653,704) = 459712
