Lets's calculate LCM of 645,5312
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3426240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3426240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5982/645,4402/5312 is 2/3426240
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 645,5312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(645,5312) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(645,5312) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(645,5312) = ( 645 × 5312 ) / 1
LCM(645,5312) = 3426240 / 1
LCM(645,5312) = 3426240
