Lets's calculate LCM of 729,7748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5648292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5648292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7876/729,7268/7748 is 4/5648292
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 729,7748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,7748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(729,7748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(729,7748) = ( 729 × 7748 ) / 1
LCM(729,7748) = 5648292 / 1
LCM(729,7748) = 5648292
