Lets's calculate LCM of 897,356
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 319332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/319332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3100/897,9288/356 is 4/319332
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 897,356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,356) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,356) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,356) = ( 897 × 356 ) / 1
LCM(897,356) = 319332 / 1
LCM(897,356) = 319332
