Lets's calculate LCM of 743,9949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7392107
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 111/7392107
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3552/743,7215/9949 is 111/7392107
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 743,9949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,9949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,9949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,9949) = ( 743 × 9949 ) / 1
LCM(743,9949) = 7392107 / 1
LCM(743,9949) = 7392107
