Lets's calculate LCM of 339,158
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 53562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3247/339,1845/158 is 1/53562
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 339,158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(339,158) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(339,158) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(339,158) = ( 339 × 158 ) / 1
LCM(339,158) = 53562 / 1
LCM(339,158) = 53562
