Lets's calculate LCM of 299,732
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 218868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/218868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 772/299,286/732 is 2/218868
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 299,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(299,732) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(299,732) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(299,732) = ( 299 × 732 ) / 1
LCM(299,732) = 218868 / 1
LCM(299,732) = 218868
