Lets's calculate LCM of 629,923
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 580567
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/580567
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5370/629,1722/923 is 6/580567
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 629,923 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(629,923) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(629,923) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(629,923) = ( 629 × 923 ) / 1
LCM(629,923) = 580567 / 1
LCM(629,923) = 580567
