Lets's calculate LCM of 914,5983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5468462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5468462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5181/914,1620/5983 is 3/5468462
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 914,5983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(914,5983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(914,5983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(914,5983) = ( 914 × 5983 ) / 1
LCM(914,5983) = 5468462 / 1
LCM(914,5983) = 5468462
