Lets's calculate LCM of 689,1864
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1284296
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1284296
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1485/689,2960/1864 is 5/1284296
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 689,1864 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(689,1864) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(689,1864) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(689,1864) = ( 689 × 1864 ) / 1
LCM(689,1864) = 1284296 / 1
LCM(689,1864) = 1284296
