Lets's calculate LCM of 280,3543
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 992040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/992040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5377/280,2544/3543 is 1/992040
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 280,3543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(280,3543) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(280,3543) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(280,3543) = ( 280 × 3543 ) / 1
LCM(280,3543) = 992040 / 1
LCM(280,3543) = 992040
