Lets's calculate LCM of 743,2244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1667292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1667292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5748/743,6680/2244 is 4/1667292
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 743,2244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,2244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,2244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,2244) = ( 743 × 2244 ) / 1
LCM(743,2244) = 1667292 / 1
LCM(743,2244) = 1667292
