Lets's calculate LCM of 334,4391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1466594
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/1466594
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1540/334,2366/4391 is 14/1466594
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 334,4391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,4391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,4391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(334,4391) = ( 334 × 4391 ) / 1
LCM(334,4391) = 1466594 / 1
LCM(334,4391) = 1466594
