Lets's calculate LCM of 371,2444
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 906724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/906724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1282/371,5562/2444 is 2/906724
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 371,2444 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,2444) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,2444) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,2444) = ( 371 × 2444 ) / 1
LCM(371,2444) = 906724 / 1
LCM(371,2444) = 906724
