Lets's calculate LCM of 284,7967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2262628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2262628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2880/284,3486/7967 is 6/2262628
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 284,7967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,7967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,7967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,7967) = ( 284 × 7967 ) / 1
LCM(284,7967) = 2262628 / 1
LCM(284,7967) = 2262628
