Lets's calculate LCM of 539,2160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1164240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1164240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8142/539,3187/2160 is 1/1164240
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 539,2160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,2160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,2160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,2160) = ( 539 × 2160 ) / 1
LCM(539,2160) = 1164240 / 1
LCM(539,2160) = 1164240
