Lets's calculate LCM of 845,9804
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8284380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/8284380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3198/845,2943/9804 is 3/8284380
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 845,9804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(845,9804) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(845,9804) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(845,9804) = ( 845 × 9804 ) / 1
LCM(845,9804) = 8284380 / 1
LCM(845,9804) = 8284380
