Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 300/844,8247/5697 is 3/22788
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 844,5697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,5697) = 211
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,5697) x common factors =211 x 1 = 211
LCM(844,5697) = ( 844 × 5697 ) / 211
LCM(844,5697) = 4808268 / 211
LCM(844,5697) = 22788
