Lets's calculate LCM of 793,742
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 588406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/588406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9424/793,9698/742 is 2/588406
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 793,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,742) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,742) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,742) = ( 793 × 742 ) / 1
LCM(793,742) = 588406 / 1
LCM(793,742) = 588406
