Lets's calculate LCM of 716,981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 702396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/702396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6446/716,2046/981 is 22/702396
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 716,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(716,981) = ( 716 × 981 ) / 1
LCM(716,981) = 702396 / 1
LCM(716,981) = 702396
