Lets's calculate LCM of 363,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 189123
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/189123
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 854/363,6884/521 is 2/189123
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 363,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(363,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(363,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(363,521) = ( 363 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(363,521) = 189123 / 1
LCM(363,521) = 189123
