Lets's calculate LCM of 144,2371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 341424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/341424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3352/144,5126/2371 is 2/341424
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 144,2371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,2371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,2371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(144,2371) = ( 144 × 2371 ) / 1
LCM(144,2371) = 341424 / 1
LCM(144,2371) = 341424
