Lets's calculate LCM of 359,943
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 338537
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/338537
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7045/359,5862/943 is 1/338537
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 359,943 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(359,943) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(359,943) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(359,943) = ( 359 × 943 ) / 1
LCM(359,943) = 338537 / 1
LCM(359,943) = 338537
