Lets's calculate LCM of 496,739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 366544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/366544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9412/496,2424/739 is 4/366544
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 496,739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(496,739) = ( 496 × 739 ) / 1
LCM(496,739) = 366544 / 1
LCM(496,739) = 366544
