Lets's calculate LCM of 768,5171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3971328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3971328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3771/768,6044/5171 is 1/3971328
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 768,5171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,5171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,5171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(768,5171) = ( 768 × 5171 ) / 1
LCM(768,5171) = 3971328 / 1
LCM(768,5171) = 3971328
