Lets's calculate LCM of 329,8845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2910005
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/2910005
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1296/329,3438/8845 is 18/2910005
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 329,8845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(329,8845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(329,8845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(329,8845) = ( 329 × 8845 ) / 1
LCM(329,8845) = 2910005 / 1
LCM(329,8845) = 2910005
