Lets's calculate LCM of 732,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 562908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/562908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9976/732,3430/769 is 2/562908
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 732,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(732,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(732,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(732,769) = ( 732 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(732,769) = 562908 / 1
LCM(732,769) = 562908
