So the greatest common factor 2874,4383 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 249,3044
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 757956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/757956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2874/249,4383/3044 is 3/757956
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 249,3044 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(249,3044) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(249,3044) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(249,3044) = ( 249 × 3044 ) / 1
LCM(249,3044) = 757956 / 1
LCM(249,3044) = 757956
