Lets's calculate LCM of 328,1799
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 590072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/590072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3486/328,3497/1799 is 1/590072
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 328,1799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,1799) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,1799) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(328,1799) = ( 328 × 1799 ) / 1
LCM(328,1799) = 590072 / 1
LCM(328,1799) = 590072
