Lets's calculate LCM of 361,8730
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3151530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3151530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 34/361,5272/8730 is 2/3151530
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 361,8730 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,8730) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,8730) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,8730) = ( 361 × 8730 ) / 1
LCM(361,8730) = 3151530 / 1
LCM(361,8730) = 3151530
