Lets's calculate LCM of 280,7113
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1991640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1991640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3497/280,2127/7113 is 1/1991640
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 280,7113 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(280,7113) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(280,7113) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(280,7113) = ( 280 × 7113 ) / 1
LCM(280,7113) = 1991640 / 1
LCM(280,7113) = 1991640
