Lets's calculate LCM of 273,211
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 57603
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/57603
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8646/273,3459/211 is 3/57603
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 273,211 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(273,211) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(273,211) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(273,211) = ( 273 × 211 ) / 1
LCM(273,211) = 57603 / 1
LCM(273,211) = 57603
