Lets's calculate LCM of 397,5639
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2238683
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2238683
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 269/397,3178/5639 is 1/2238683
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 397,5639 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,5639) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,5639) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,5639) = ( 397 × 5639 ) / 1
LCM(397,5639) = 2238683 / 1
LCM(397,5639) = 2238683
