Lets's calculate LCM of 283,1482
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 419406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/419406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3178/283,3045/1482 is 7/419406
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 283,1482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(283,1482) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(283,1482) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(283,1482) = ( 283 × 1482 ) / 1
LCM(283,1482) = 419406 / 1
LCM(283,1482) = 419406
