Lets's calculate LCM of 704,5491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3865664
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3865664
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8798/704,8432/5491 is 2/3865664
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 704,5491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(704,5491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(704,5491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(704,5491) = ( 704 × 5491 ) / 1
LCM(704,5491) = 3865664 / 1
LCM(704,5491) = 3865664
