Lets's calculate LCM of 159,3287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 522633
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/522633
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3066/159,1660/3287 is 2/522633
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 159,3287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,3287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,3287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,3287) = ( 159 × 3287 ) / 1
LCM(159,3287) = 522633 / 1
LCM(159,3287) = 522633
