Lets's calculate LCM of 944,1515
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1430160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1430160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3378/944,7878/1515 is 6/1430160
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 944,1515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(944,1515) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(944,1515) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(944,1515) = ( 944 × 1515 ) / 1
LCM(944,1515) = 1430160 / 1
LCM(944,1515) = 1430160
