Lets's calculate LCM of 726,5603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4067778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4067778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8798/726,5732/5603 is 2/4067778
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 726,5603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,5603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,5603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(726,5603) = ( 726 × 5603 ) / 1
LCM(726,5603) = 4067778 / 1
LCM(726,5603) = 4067778
