Lets's calculate LCM of 368,6939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2553552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2553552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2579/368,2160/6939 is 1/2553552
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 368,6939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(368,6939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(368,6939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(368,6939) = ( 368 × 6939 ) / 1
LCM(368,6939) = 2553552 / 1
LCM(368,6939) = 2553552
