Lets's calculate LCM of 262,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 215626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/215626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3579/262,9126/823 is 3/215626
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 262,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(262,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(262,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(262,823) = ( 262 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(262,823) = 215626 / 1
LCM(262,823) = 215626
