Lets's calculate LCM of 785,5662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4444670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4444670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7197/785,3480/5662 is 3/4444670
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 785,5662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(785,5662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(785,5662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(785,5662) = ( 785 × 5662 ) / 1
LCM(785,5662) = 4444670 / 1
LCM(785,5662) = 4444670
