Lets's calculate LCM of 271,8558
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2319218
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 151/2319218
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3473/271,5134/8558 is 151/2319218
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 271,8558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,8558) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,8558) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,8558) = ( 271 × 8558 ) / 1
LCM(271,8558) = 2319218 / 1
LCM(271,8558) = 2319218
