Lets's calculate LCM of 945,1684
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1591380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1591380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3706/945,3159/1684 is 1/1591380
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 945,1684 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(945,1684) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(945,1684) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(945,1684) = ( 945 × 1684 ) / 1
LCM(945,1684) = 1591380 / 1
LCM(945,1684) = 1591380
