Lets's calculate LCM of 197,2949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 580953
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/580953
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4545/197,6729/2949 is 3/580953
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 197,2949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(197,2949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(197,2949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(197,2949) = ( 197 × 2949 ) / 1
LCM(197,2949) = 580953 / 1
LCM(197,2949) = 580953
