Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3116/976,3855/5734 is 1/45872
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 976,5734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(976,5734) = 122
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(976,5734) x common factors =122 x 1 = 122
LCM(976,5734) = ( 976 × 5734 ) / 122
LCM(976,5734) = 5596384 / 122
LCM(976,5734) = 45872
