Lets's calculate LCM of 512,3375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1728000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1728000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5097/512,7179/3375 is 3/1728000
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 512,3375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,3375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,3375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(512,3375) = ( 512 × 3375 ) / 1
LCM(512,3375) = 1728000 / 1
LCM(512,3375) = 1728000
