Lets's calculate LCM of 742,9549
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7085358
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7085358
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5798/742,4174/9549 is 2/7085358
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 742,9549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(742,9549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(742,9549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(742,9549) = ( 742 × 9549 ) / 1
LCM(742,9549) = 7085358 / 1
LCM(742,9549) = 7085358
