Lets's calculate LCM of 323,5404
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1745492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1745492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9872/323,9568/5404 is 16/1745492
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 323,5404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,5404) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,5404) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,5404) = ( 323 × 5404 ) / 1
LCM(323,5404) = 1745492 / 1
LCM(323,5404) = 1745492
