Lets's calculate LCM of 537,2185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1173345
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1173345
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3509/537,9440/2185 is 1/1173345
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 537,2185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,2185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,2185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(537,2185) = ( 537 × 2185 ) / 1
LCM(537,2185) = 1173345 / 1
LCM(537,2185) = 1173345
