So the greatest common factor 2634,2236 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 737,3297
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2429889
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2429889
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2634/737,2236/3297 is 2/2429889
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 737,3297 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,3297) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,3297) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,3297) = ( 737 × 3297 ) / 1
LCM(737,3297) = 2429889 / 1
LCM(737,3297) = 2429889
