Lets's calculate LCM of 889,3258
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2896362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2896362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7414/889,5842/3258 is 2/2896362
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 889,3258 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(889,3258) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(889,3258) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(889,3258) = ( 889 × 3258 ) / 1
LCM(889,3258) = 2896362 / 1
LCM(889,3258) = 2896362
