Lets's calculate LCM of 327,2468
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 807036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/807036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/327,7830/2468 is 18/807036
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 327,2468 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(327,2468) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(327,2468) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(327,2468) = ( 327 × 2468 ) / 1
LCM(327,2468) = 807036 / 1
LCM(327,2468) = 807036
