Lets's calculate LCM of 539,3422
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1844458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1844458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5968/539,7614/3422 is 2/1844458
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 539,3422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,3422) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,3422) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,3422) = ( 539 × 3422 ) / 1
LCM(539,3422) = 1844458 / 1
LCM(539,3422) = 1844458
