Lets's calculate LCM of 704,1799
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1266496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1266496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8242/704,9637/1799 is 1/1266496
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 704,1799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(704,1799) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(704,1799) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(704,1799) = ( 704 × 1799 ) / 1
LCM(704,1799) = 1266496 / 1
LCM(704,1799) = 1266496
