Lets's calculate LCM of 835,969
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 809115
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/809115
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 546/835,9304/969 is 2/809115
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 835,969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,969) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(835,969) = ( 835 × 969 ) / 1
LCM(835,969) = 809115 / 1
LCM(835,969) = 809115
