Lets's calculate LCM of 643,2359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1516837
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1516837
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1696/643,1804/2359 is 4/1516837
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 643,2359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,2359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,2359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,2359) = ( 643 × 2359 ) / 1
LCM(643,2359) = 1516837 / 1
LCM(643,2359) = 1516837
