Lets's calculate LCM of 617,2318
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1430206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1430206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/617,7366/2318 is 2/1430206
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 617,2318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,2318) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,2318) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,2318) = ( 617 × 2318 ) / 1
LCM(617,2318) = 1430206 / 1
LCM(617,2318) = 1430206
