Lets's calculate LCM of 356,6051
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2154156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2154156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5431/356,1158/6051 is 1/2154156
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 356,6051 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(356,6051) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(356,6051) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(356,6051) = ( 356 × 6051 ) / 1
LCM(356,6051) = 2154156 / 1
LCM(356,6051) = 2154156
