Lets's calculate LCM of 309,394
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 121746
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/121746
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2285/309,3731/394 is 1/121746
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 309,394 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,394) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,394) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,394) = ( 309 × 394 ) / 1
LCM(309,394) = 121746 / 1
LCM(309,394) = 121746
