Lets's calculate LCM of 157,9894
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1553358
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1553358
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3378/157,3447/9894 is 3/1553358
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 157,9894 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,9894) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,9894) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,9894) = ( 157 × 9894 ) / 1
LCM(157,9894) = 1553358 / 1
LCM(157,9894) = 1553358
