Lets's calculate LCM of 747,337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 251739
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/251739
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8439/747,3704/337 is 1/251739
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 747,337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(747,337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(747,337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(747,337) = ( 747 × 337 ) / 1
LCM(747,337) = 251739 / 1
LCM(747,337) = 251739
