Lets's calculate LCM of 241,3592
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 865672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/865672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3356/241,8658/3592 is 2/865672
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 241,3592 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,3592) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,3592) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,3592) = ( 241 × 3592 ) / 1
LCM(241,3592) = 865672 / 1
LCM(241,3592) = 865672
