Lets's calculate LCM of 68,5045
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 343060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/343060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 749/68,688/5045 is 1/343060
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 68,5045 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,5045) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,5045) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(68,5045) = ( 68 × 5045 ) / 1
LCM(68,5045) = 343060 / 1
LCM(68,5045) = 343060
