Lets's calculate LCM of 411,5317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2185287
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2185287
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8337/411,5724/5317 is 3/2185287
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 411,5317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(411,5317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(411,5317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(411,5317) = ( 411 × 5317 ) / 1
LCM(411,5317) = 2185287 / 1
LCM(411,5317) = 2185287
