Lets's calculate LCM of 5945,3241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19267745
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/19267745
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 484/5945,342/3241 is 2/19267745
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 5945,3241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5945,3241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5945,3241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(5945,3241) = ( 5945 × 3241 ) / 1
LCM(5945,3241) = 19267745 / 1
LCM(5945,3241) = 19267745
