Lets's calculate LCM of 185,789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145965
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145965
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 325/185,472/789 is 1/145965
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 185,789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(185,789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(185,789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(185,789) = ( 185 × 789 ) / 1
LCM(185,789) = 145965 / 1
LCM(185,789) = 145965
