Lets's calculate LCM of 324,6011
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1947564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1947564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6544/324,9138/6011 is 2/1947564
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 324,6011 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(324,6011) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(324,6011) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(324,6011) = ( 324 × 6011 ) / 1
LCM(324,6011) = 1947564 / 1
LCM(324,6011) = 1947564
