Lets's calculate LCM of 379,8558
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3243482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3243482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2556/379,8193/8558 is 3/3243482
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 379,8558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(379,8558) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(379,8558) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(379,8558) = ( 379 × 8558 ) / 1
LCM(379,8558) = 3243482 / 1
LCM(379,8558) = 3243482
