Lets's calculate LCM of 817,3600
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2941200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2941200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3586/817,2189/3600 is 11/2941200
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 817,3600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(817,3600) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(817,3600) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(817,3600) = ( 817 × 3600 ) / 1
LCM(817,3600) = 2941200 / 1
LCM(817,3600) = 2941200
