Lets's calculate LCM of 689,536
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 369304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/369304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2945/689,8373/536 is 1/369304
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 689,536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(689,536) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(689,536) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(689,536) = ( 689 × 536 ) / 1
LCM(689,536) = 369304 / 1
LCM(689,536) = 369304
