Lets's calculate LCM of 369,794
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 292986
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/292986
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3744/369,3331/794 is 1/292986
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 369,794 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(369,794) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(369,794) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(369,794) = ( 369 × 794 ) / 1
LCM(369,794) = 292986 / 1
LCM(369,794) = 292986
