Lets's calculate LCM of 393,766
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 301038
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/301038
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6734/393,7042/766 is 14/301038
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 393,766 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(393,766) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(393,766) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(393,766) = ( 393 × 766 ) / 1
LCM(393,766) = 301038 / 1
LCM(393,766) = 301038
