Lets's calculate LCM of 643,3485
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2240855
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2240855
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7236/643,5114/3485 is 2/2240855
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 643,3485 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,3485) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,3485) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,3485) = ( 643 × 3485 ) / 1
LCM(643,3485) = 2240855 / 1
LCM(643,3485) = 2240855
