Lets's calculate LCM of 703,867
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 609501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/609501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7468/703,3216/867 is 4/609501
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 703,867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,867) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,867) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,867) = ( 703 × 867 ) / 1
LCM(703,867) = 609501 / 1
LCM(703,867) = 609501
