Lets's calculate LCM of 36,289
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 389/36,352/289 is 1/10404
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 36,289 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,289) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,289) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(36,289) = ( 36 × 289 ) / 1
LCM(36,289) = 10404 / 1
LCM(36,289) = 10404
