Lets's calculate LCM of 694,7173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4978062
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4978062
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7990/694,8444/7173 is 2/4978062
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 694,7173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(694,7173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(694,7173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(694,7173) = ( 694 × 7173 ) / 1
LCM(694,7173) = 4978062 / 1
LCM(694,7173) = 4978062
