So the greatest common factor 3241,2324 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 246,1531
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 376626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/376626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3241/246,2324/1531 is 7/376626
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 246,1531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(246,1531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(246,1531) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(246,1531) = ( 246 × 1531 ) / 1
LCM(246,1531) = 376626 / 1
LCM(246,1531) = 376626
