Lets's calculate LCM of 318,5735
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1823730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/1823730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5746/318,9646/5735 is 26/1823730
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 318,5735 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(318,5735) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(318,5735) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(318,5735) = ( 318 × 5735 ) / 1
LCM(318,5735) = 1823730 / 1
LCM(318,5735) = 1823730
