Lets's calculate LCM of 334,1427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 476618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/476618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3398/334,7358/1427 is 2/476618
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 334,1427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,1427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,1427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(334,1427) = ( 334 × 1427 ) / 1
LCM(334,1427) = 476618 / 1
LCM(334,1427) = 476618
