Lets's calculate LCM of 674,2347
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1581878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1581878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3458/674,3852/2347 is 2/1581878
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 674,2347 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,2347) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,2347) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(674,2347) = ( 674 × 2347 ) / 1
LCM(674,2347) = 1581878 / 1
LCM(674,2347) = 1581878
