Lets's calculate LCM of 793,3643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2888899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2888899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 891/793,1599/3643 is 3/2888899
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 793,3643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,3643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,3643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,3643) = ( 793 × 3643 ) / 1
LCM(793,3643) = 2888899 / 1
LCM(793,3643) = 2888899
