Lets's calculate LCM of 543,596
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 323628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/323628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 837/543,580/596 is 1/323628
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 543,596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(543,596) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(543,596) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(543,596) = ( 543 × 596 ) / 1
LCM(543,596) = 323628 / 1
LCM(543,596) = 323628
