Lets's calculate LCM of 845,324
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 273780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/273780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5721/845,6198/324 is 3/273780
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 845,324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(845,324) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(845,324) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(845,324) = ( 845 × 324 ) / 1
LCM(845,324) = 273780 / 1
LCM(845,324) = 273780
