Lets's calculate LCM of 347,6820
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2366540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/2366540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3762/347,8730/6820 is 18/2366540
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 347,6820 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(347,6820) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(347,6820) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(347,6820) = ( 347 × 6820 ) / 1
LCM(347,6820) = 2366540 / 1
LCM(347,6820) = 2366540
