Lets's calculate LCM of 145,5997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 869565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/869565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5321/145,7546/5997 is 1/869565
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 145,5997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(145,5997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(145,5997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(145,5997) = ( 145 × 5997 ) / 1
LCM(145,5997) = 869565 / 1
LCM(145,5997) = 869565
