Lets's calculate LCM of 738,899
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 663462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/663462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9414/738,3186/899 is 18/663462
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 738,899 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,899) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,899) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(738,899) = ( 738 × 899 ) / 1
LCM(738,899) = 663462 / 1
LCM(738,899) = 663462
