Lets's calculate LCM of 386,6147
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2372742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/2372742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2788/386,1615/6147 is 17/2372742
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 386,6147 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(386,6147) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(386,6147) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(386,6147) = ( 386 × 6147 ) / 1
LCM(386,6147) = 2372742 / 1
LCM(386,6147) = 2372742
