So the greatest common factor 784,709 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,3991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295334
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/295334
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 784/74,709/3991 is 1/295334
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 74,3991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,3991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,3991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,3991) = ( 74 × 3991 ) / 1
LCM(74,3991) = 295334 / 1
LCM(74,3991) = 295334
