Lets's calculate LCM of 349,5327
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1859123
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1859123
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3470/349,4602/5327 is 2/1859123
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 349,5327 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(349,5327) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(349,5327) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(349,5327) = ( 349 × 5327 ) / 1
LCM(349,5327) = 1859123 / 1
LCM(349,5327) = 1859123
