Lets's calculate LCM of 323,2304
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 744192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 46/744192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2024/323,5842/2304 is 46/744192
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 323,2304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,2304) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,2304) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,2304) = ( 323 × 2304 ) / 1
LCM(323,2304) = 744192 / 1
LCM(323,2304) = 744192
