Lets's calculate LCM of 18,3461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62298
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/62298
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 329/18,856/3461 is 1/62298
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 18,3461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,3461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,3461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(18,3461) = ( 18 × 3461 ) / 1
LCM(18,3461) = 62298 / 1
LCM(18,3461) = 62298
