So the greatest common factor 3512,1575 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 301,298
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 89698
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/89698
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3512/301,1575/298 is 1/89698
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 301,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(301,298) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(301,298) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(301,298) = ( 301 × 298 ) / 1
LCM(301,298) = 89698 / 1
LCM(301,298) = 89698
