Lets's calculate LCM of 821,3720
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3054120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3054120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3480/821,8239/3720 is 1/3054120
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 821,3720 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(821,3720) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(821,3720) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(821,3720) = ( 821 × 3720 ) / 1
LCM(821,3720) = 3054120 / 1
LCM(821,3720) = 3054120
