Lets's calculate LCM of 332,3259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1081988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1081988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2655/332,1400/3259 is 5/1081988
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 332,3259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,3259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,3259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,3259) = ( 332 × 3259 ) / 1
LCM(332,3259) = 1081988 / 1
LCM(332,3259) = 1081988
