Lets's calculate LCM of 340,7661
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2604740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2604740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2571/340,2896/7661 is 1/2604740
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 340,7661 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(340,7661) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(340,7661) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(340,7661) = ( 340 × 7661 ) / 1
LCM(340,7661) = 2604740 / 1
LCM(340,7661) = 2604740
