Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3197/326,6473/1178 is 1/192014
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 326,1178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(326,1178) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(326,1178) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(326,1178) = ( 326 × 1178 ) / 2
LCM(326,1178) = 384028 / 2
LCM(326,1178) = 192014
