So the greatest common factor 5734,7116 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 327,1946
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 636342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/636342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5734/327,7116/1946 is 2/636342
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 327,1946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(327,1946) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(327,1946) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(327,1946) = ( 327 × 1946 ) / 1
LCM(327,1946) = 636342 / 1
LCM(327,1946) = 636342
