Lets's calculate LCM of 743,1934
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1436962
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1436962
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8424/743,2866/1934 is 2/1436962
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 743,1934 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,1934) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,1934) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,1934) = ( 743 × 1934 ) / 1
LCM(743,1934) = 1436962 / 1
LCM(743,1934) = 1436962
