Lets's calculate LCM of 211,2672
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 563792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/563792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1778/211,3238/2672 is 2/563792
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 211,2672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(211,2672) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(211,2672) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(211,2672) = ( 211 × 2672 ) / 1
LCM(211,2672) = 563792 / 1
LCM(211,2672) = 563792
