Lets's calculate LCM of 609,1940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1181460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1181460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6288/609,4179/1940 is 3/1181460
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 609,1940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(609,1940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(609,1940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(609,1940) = ( 609 × 1940 ) / 1
LCM(609,1940) = 1181460 / 1
LCM(609,1940) = 1181460
