Lets's calculate LCM of 338,2027
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 685126
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/685126
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2488/338,4706/2027 is 2/685126
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 338,2027 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(338,2027) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(338,2027) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(338,2027) = ( 338 × 2027 ) / 1
LCM(338,2027) = 685126 / 1
LCM(338,2027) = 685126
