So the greatest common factor 3266,3606 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 541,7004
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3789164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3789164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3266/541,3606/7004 is 2/3789164
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 541,7004 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,7004) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,7004) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,7004) = ( 541 × 7004 ) / 1
LCM(541,7004) = 3789164 / 1
LCM(541,7004) = 3789164
