Lets's calculate LCM of 311,5841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1816551
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1816551
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9381/311,5889/5841 is 3/1816551
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 311,5841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,5841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(311,5841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(311,5841) = ( 311 × 5841 ) / 1
LCM(311,5841) = 1816551 / 1
LCM(311,5841) = 1816551
