Lets's calculate LCM of 709,122
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/86498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5999/709,2912/122 is 7/86498
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 709,122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(709,122) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(709,122) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(709,122) = ( 709 × 122 ) / 1
LCM(709,122) = 86498 / 1
LCM(709,122) = 86498
