Lets's calculate LCM of 353,6291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2220723
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 112/2220723
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3696/353,8960/6291 is 112/2220723
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 353,6291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(353,6291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(353,6291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(353,6291) = ( 353 × 6291 ) / 1
LCM(353,6291) = 2220723 / 1
LCM(353,6291) = 2220723
