So the greatest common factor 1487,1536 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 327,3839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1255353
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1255353
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1487/327,1536/3839 is 1/1255353
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 327,3839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(327,3839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(327,3839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(327,3839) = ( 327 × 3839 ) / 1
LCM(327,3839) = 1255353 / 1
LCM(327,3839) = 1255353
