Lets's calculate LCM of 784,717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 562128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/562128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6698/784,5016/717 is 2/562128
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 784,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(784,717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(784,717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(784,717) = ( 784 × 717 ) / 1
LCM(784,717) = 562128 / 1
LCM(784,717) = 562128
