Lets's calculate LCM of 516,3539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1826124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1826124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8724/516,1330/3539 is 2/1826124
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 516,3539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(516,3539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(516,3539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(516,3539) = ( 516 × 3539 ) / 1
LCM(516,3539) = 1826124 / 1
LCM(516,3539) = 1826124
