Lets's calculate LCM of 848,3189
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2704272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2704272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8487/848,5580/3189 is 9/2704272
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 848,3189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,3189) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,3189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(848,3189) = ( 848 × 3189 ) / 1
LCM(848,3189) = 2704272 / 1
LCM(848,3189) = 2704272
