Lets's calculate LCM of 229,5793
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1326597
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 167/1326597
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3674/229,8851/5793 is 167/1326597
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 229,5793 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(229,5793) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(229,5793) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(229,5793) = ( 229 × 5793 ) / 1
LCM(229,5793) = 1326597 / 1
LCM(229,5793) = 1326597
