Lets's calculate LCM of 288,1267
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 364896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/364896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2679/288,2540/1267 is 1/364896
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 288,1267 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,1267) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,1267) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(288,1267) = ( 288 × 1267 ) / 1
LCM(288,1267) = 364896 / 1
LCM(288,1267) = 364896
