Lets's calculate LCM of 289,733
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 211837
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/211837
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6843/289,3868/733 is 1/211837
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 289,733 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(289,733) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(289,733) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(289,733) = ( 289 × 733 ) / 1
LCM(289,733) = 211837 / 1
LCM(289,733) = 211837
