Lets's calculate LCM of 661,8157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5391777
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5391777
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3474/661,2780/8157 is 2/5391777
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 661,8157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,8157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,8157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,8157) = ( 661 × 8157 ) / 1
LCM(661,8157) = 5391777 / 1
LCM(661,8157) = 5391777
