Lets's calculate LCM of 298,3911
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1165478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1165478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3577/298,1989/3911 is 1/1165478
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 298,3911 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(298,3911) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(298,3911) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(298,3911) = ( 298 × 3911 ) / 1
LCM(298,3911) = 1165478 / 1
LCM(298,3911) = 1165478
