Lets's calculate LCM of 357,1117
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 398769
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/398769
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3045/357,5871/1117 is 3/398769
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 357,1117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,1117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,1117) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(357,1117) = ( 357 × 1117 ) / 1
LCM(357,1117) = 398769 / 1
LCM(357,1117) = 398769
