Lets's calculate LCM of 739,3446
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2546594
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/2546594
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9432/739,8880/3446 is 24/2546594
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 739,3446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(739,3446) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(739,3446) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(739,3446) = ( 739 × 3446 ) / 1
LCM(739,3446) = 2546594 / 1
LCM(739,3446) = 2546594
