Lets's calculate LCM of 663,848
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 562224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/562224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3074/663,8478/848 is 2/562224
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 663,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(663,848) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(663,848) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(663,848) = ( 663 × 848 ) / 1
LCM(663,848) = 562224 / 1
LCM(663,848) = 562224
