Lets's calculate LCM of 693,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 491337
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/491337
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2056/693,8598/709 is 2/491337
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 693,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(693,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(693,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(693,709) = ( 693 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(693,709) = 491337 / 1
LCM(693,709) = 491337
