Lets's calculate LCM of 634,1523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 965582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/965582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1582/634,3630/1523 is 2/965582
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 634,1523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(634,1523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(634,1523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(634,1523) = ( 634 × 1523 ) / 1
LCM(634,1523) = 965582 / 1
LCM(634,1523) = 965582
