Lets's calculate LCM of 431,2546
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1097326
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1097326
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8618/431,8529/2546 is 1/1097326
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 431,2546 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,2546) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,2546) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,2546) = ( 431 × 2546 ) / 1
LCM(431,2546) = 1097326 / 1
LCM(431,2546) = 1097326
