Lets's calculate LCM of 344,7969
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2741336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2741336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1466/344,8304/7969 is 2/2741336
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 344,7969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(344,7969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(344,7969) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(344,7969) = ( 344 × 7969 ) / 1
LCM(344,7969) = 2741336 / 1
LCM(344,7969) = 2741336
