Lets's calculate LCM of 617,243
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149931
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/149931
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4346/617,7920/243 is 2/149931
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 617,243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,243) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,243) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,243) = ( 617 × 243 ) / 1
LCM(617,243) = 149931 / 1
LCM(617,243) = 149931
