Lets's calculate LCM of 272,3649
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 992528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/992528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7943/272,5157/3649 is 1/992528
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 272,3649 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,3649) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,3649) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(272,3649) = ( 272 × 3649 ) / 1
LCM(272,3649) = 992528 / 1
LCM(272,3649) = 992528
