Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2434/358,8394/648 is 2/115992
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 358,648 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(358,648) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(358,648) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(358,648) = ( 358 × 648 ) / 2
LCM(358,648) = 231984 / 2
LCM(358,648) = 115992
