Lets's calculate LCM of 242,8385
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2029170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2029170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2636/242,6778/8385 is 2/2029170
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 242,8385 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,8385) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,8385) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,8385) = ( 242 × 8385 ) / 1
LCM(242,8385) = 2029170 / 1
LCM(242,8385) = 2029170
