Lets's calculate LCM of 357,8353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2982021
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/2982021
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2358/357,7722/8353 is 18/2982021
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 357,8353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,8353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,8353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(357,8353) = ( 357 × 8353 ) / 1
LCM(357,8353) = 2982021 / 1
LCM(357,8353) = 2982021
