Lets's calculate LCM of 617,5674
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3500858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3500858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1847/617,5238/5674 is 1/3500858
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 617,5674 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,5674) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,5674) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,5674) = ( 617 × 5674 ) / 1
LCM(617,5674) = 3500858 / 1
LCM(617,5674) = 3500858
