Lets's calculate LCM of 349,274
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 95626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/95626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3369/349,8712/274 is 3/95626
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 349,274 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(349,274) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(349,274) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(349,274) = ( 349 × 274 ) / 1
LCM(349,274) = 95626 / 1
LCM(349,274) = 95626
