Lets's calculate LCM of 932,771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 718572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/718572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 796/932,5340/771 is 4/718572
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 932,771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(932,771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(932,771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(932,771) = ( 932 × 771 ) / 1
LCM(932,771) = 718572 / 1
LCM(932,771) = 718572
