Lets's calculate LCM of 397,1134
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 450198
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/450198
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9231/397,5984/1134 is 17/450198
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 397,1134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,1134) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,1134) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,1134) = ( 397 × 1134 ) / 1
LCM(397,1134) = 450198 / 1
LCM(397,1134) = 450198
