Lets's calculate LCM of 789,7243
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5714727
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5714727
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8542/789,9610/7243 is 2/5714727
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 789,7243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,7243) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,7243) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(789,7243) = ( 789 × 7243 ) / 1
LCM(789,7243) = 5714727 / 1
LCM(789,7243) = 5714727
