Lets's calculate LCM of 722,7685
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5548570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/5548570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7314/722,1842/7685 is 6/5548570
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 722,7685 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,7685) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,7685) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(722,7685) = ( 722 × 7685 ) / 1
LCM(722,7685) = 5548570 / 1
LCM(722,7685) = 5548570
