Lets's calculate LCM of 317,1132
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 358844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/358844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7359/317,3973/1132 is 1/358844
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 317,1132 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(317,1132) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(317,1132) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(317,1132) = ( 317 × 1132 ) / 1
LCM(317,1132) = 358844 / 1
LCM(317,1132) = 358844
