Lets's calculate LCM of 748,379
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 283492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/283492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5796/748,7040/379 is 4/283492
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 748,379 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(748,379) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(748,379) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(748,379) = ( 748 × 379 ) / 1
LCM(748,379) = 283492 / 1
LCM(748,379) = 283492
