Lets's calculate LCM of 965,278
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 268270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/268270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3823/965,5540/278 is 1/268270
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 965,278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(965,278) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(965,278) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(965,278) = ( 965 × 278 ) / 1
LCM(965,278) = 268270 / 1
LCM(965,278) = 268270
