Lets's calculate LCM of 829,357
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295953
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/295953
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 897/829,317/357 is 1/295953
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 829,357 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(829,357) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(829,357) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(829,357) = ( 829 × 357 ) / 1
LCM(829,357) = 295953 / 1
LCM(829,357) = 295953
