Lets's calculate LCM of 980,5819
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5702620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/5702620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1512/980,3159/5819 is 27/5702620
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 980,5819 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(980,5819) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(980,5819) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(980,5819) = ( 980 × 5819 ) / 1
LCM(980,5819) = 5702620 / 1
LCM(980,5819) = 5702620
