Lets's calculate LCM of 299,389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116311
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/116311
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5373/299,3855/389 is 3/116311
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 299,389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(299,389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(299,389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(299,389) = ( 299 × 389 ) / 1
LCM(299,389) = 116311 / 1
LCM(299,389) = 116311
