Lets's calculate LCM of 729,5330
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3885570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3885570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4146/729,7742/5330 is 2/3885570
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 729,5330 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,5330) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(729,5330) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(729,5330) = ( 729 × 5330 ) / 1
LCM(729,5330) = 3885570 / 1
LCM(729,5330) = 3885570
