So the greatest common factor 2901,6705 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 757,2388
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1807716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1807716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2901/757,6705/2388 is 3/1807716
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 757,2388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(757,2388) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(757,2388) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(757,2388) = ( 757 × 2388 ) / 1
LCM(757,2388) = 1807716 / 1
LCM(757,2388) = 1807716
