Lets's calculate LCM of 798,8641
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6895518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6895518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9734/798,5552/8641 is 2/6895518
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 798,8641 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,8641) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(798,8641) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(798,8641) = ( 798 × 8641 ) / 1
LCM(798,8641) = 6895518 / 1
LCM(798,8641) = 6895518
