Lets's calculate LCM of 284,9161
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2601724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2601724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5316/284,1159/9161 is 1/2601724
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 284,9161 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,9161) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,9161) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,9161) = ( 284 × 9161 ) / 1
LCM(284,9161) = 2601724 / 1
LCM(284,9161) = 2601724
