Lets's calculate LCM of 541,3416
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1848056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1848056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2044/541,2979/3416 is 1/1848056
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 541,3416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,3416) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,3416) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,3416) = ( 541 × 3416 ) / 1
LCM(541,3416) = 1848056 / 1
LCM(541,3416) = 1848056
