Lets's calculate LCM of 579,7205
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4171695
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4171695
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3645/579,8971/7205 is 1/4171695
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 579,7205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(579,7205) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(579,7205) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(579,7205) = ( 579 × 7205 ) / 1
LCM(579,7205) = 4171695 / 1
LCM(579,7205) = 4171695
