Lets's calculate LCM of 352,789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 277728
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/277728
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 897/352,5819/789 is 23/277728
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 352,789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(352,789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(352,789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(352,789) = ( 352 × 789 ) / 1
LCM(352,789) = 277728 / 1
LCM(352,789) = 277728
