Lets's calculate LCM of 271,3388
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 918148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/918148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3248/271,2780/3388 is 4/918148
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 271,3388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,3388) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,3388) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,3388) = ( 271 × 3388 ) / 1
LCM(271,3388) = 918148 / 1
LCM(271,3388) = 918148
