Lets's calculate LCM of 710,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 686570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/686570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8420/710,5456/967 is 4/686570
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 710,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(710,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(710,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(710,967) = ( 710 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(710,967) = 686570 / 1
LCM(710,967) = 686570
