Lets's calculate LCM of 290,1737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 503730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/503730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5709/290,7979/1737 is 1/503730
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 290,1737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,1737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,1737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(290,1737) = ( 290 × 1737 ) / 1
LCM(290,1737) = 503730 / 1
LCM(290,1737) = 503730
