So the greatest common factor 1636,2796 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 321,3421
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1098141
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1098141
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1636/321,2796/3421 is 4/1098141
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 321,3421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,3421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,3421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,3421) = ( 321 × 3421 ) / 1
LCM(321,3421) = 1098141 / 1
LCM(321,3421) = 1098141
