Lets's calculate LCM of 839,1465
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1229135
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1229135
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2400/839,5326/1465 is 2/1229135
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 839,1465 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(839,1465) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(839,1465) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(839,1465) = ( 839 × 1465 ) / 1
LCM(839,1465) = 1229135 / 1
LCM(839,1465) = 1229135
