Lets's calculate LCM of 896,5737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5140352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/5140352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1230/896,3594/5737 is 6/5140352
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 896,5737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,5737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,5737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(896,5737) = ( 896 × 5737 ) / 1
LCM(896,5737) = 5140352 / 1
LCM(896,5737) = 5140352
