Lets's calculate LCM of 665,9241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6145265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6145265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2859/665,1251/9241 is 3/6145265
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 665,9241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(665,9241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(665,9241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(665,9241) = ( 665 × 9241 ) / 1
LCM(665,9241) = 6145265 / 1
LCM(665,9241) = 6145265
