Lets's calculate LCM of 168,1499
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 251832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/251832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3284/168,3406/1499 is 2/251832
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 168,1499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,1499) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,1499) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(168,1499) = ( 168 × 1499 ) / 1
LCM(168,1499) = 251832 / 1
LCM(168,1499) = 251832
