So the greatest common factor 3374,6956 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 323,1500
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 484500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/484500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3374/323,6956/1500 is 2/484500
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 323,1500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,1500) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,1500) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,1500) = ( 323 × 1500 ) / 1
LCM(323,1500) = 484500 / 1
LCM(323,1500) = 484500
