Lets's calculate LCM of 531,6769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3594339
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/3594339
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5340/531,1746/6769 is 6/3594339
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 531,6769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(531,6769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(531,6769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(531,6769) = ( 531 × 6769 ) / 1
LCM(531,6769) = 3594339 / 1
LCM(531,6769) = 3594339
