Lets's calculate LCM of 321,5332
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1711572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1711572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9861/321,3942/5332 is 3/1711572
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 321,5332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,5332) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,5332) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,5332) = ( 321 × 5332 ) / 1
LCM(321,5332) = 1711572 / 1
LCM(321,5332) = 1711572
