So the greatest common factor 9740,4023 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 743762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/743762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9740/997,4023/746 is 1/743762
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 997,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,746) = ( 997 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(997,746) = 743762 / 1
LCM(997,746) = 743762
