Lets's calculate LCM of 443,2994
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1326342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1326342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1867/443,2842/2994 is 1/1326342
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 443,2994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(443,2994) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(443,2994) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(443,2994) = ( 443 × 2994 ) / 1
LCM(443,2994) = 1326342 / 1
LCM(443,2994) = 1326342
