Lets's calculate LCM of 735,2432
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1787520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1787520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8908/735,1100/2432 is 4/1787520
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 735,2432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(735,2432) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(735,2432) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(735,2432) = ( 735 × 2432 ) / 1
LCM(735,2432) = 1787520 / 1
LCM(735,2432) = 1787520
