Lets's calculate LCM of 371,1391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 516061
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/516061
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1662/371,8774/1391 is 2/516061
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 371,1391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,1391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,1391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,1391) = ( 371 × 1391 ) / 1
LCM(371,1391) = 516061 / 1
LCM(371,1391) = 516061
