Lets's calculate LCM of 520,5293
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2752360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2752360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8661/520,3273/5293 is 3/2752360
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 520,5293 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(520,5293) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(520,5293) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(520,5293) = ( 520 × 5293 ) / 1
LCM(520,5293) = 2752360 / 1
LCM(520,5293) = 2752360
