Lets's calculate LCM of 709,1246
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 883414
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/883414
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2360/709,5384/1246 is 8/883414
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 709,1246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(709,1246) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(709,1246) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(709,1246) = ( 709 × 1246 ) / 1
LCM(709,1246) = 883414 / 1
LCM(709,1246) = 883414
