Lets's calculate LCM of 542,3121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1691582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1691582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4936/542,9300/3121 is 4/1691582
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 542,3121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,3121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,3121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,3121) = ( 542 × 3121 ) / 1
LCM(542,3121) = 1691582 / 1
LCM(542,3121) = 1691582
