Lets's calculate LCM of 703,5679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3992337
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3992337
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2718/703,1838/5679 is 2/3992337
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 703,5679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,5679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,5679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,5679) = ( 703 × 5679 ) / 1
LCM(703,5679) = 3992337 / 1
LCM(703,5679) = 3992337
