Lets's calculate LCM of 789,9689
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7644621
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7644621
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7234/789,1730/9689 is 2/7644621
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 789,9689 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,9689) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,9689) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(789,9689) = ( 789 × 9689 ) / 1
LCM(789,9689) = 7644621 / 1
LCM(789,9689) = 7644621
