Lets's calculate LCM of 761,421
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 320381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/320381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2821/761,5118/421 is 1/320381
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 761,421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(761,421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(761,421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(761,421) = ( 761 × 421 ) / 1
LCM(761,421) = 320381 / 1
LCM(761,421) = 320381
