Lets's calculate LCM of 699,904
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 631896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/631896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7542/699,1400/904 is 2/631896
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 699,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(699,904) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(699,904) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(699,904) = ( 699 × 904 ) / 1
LCM(699,904) = 631896 / 1
LCM(699,904) = 631896
