Lets's calculate LCM of 241,8310
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2002710
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2002710
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4242/241,9399/8310 is 3/2002710
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 241,8310 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,8310) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,8310) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,8310) = ( 241 × 8310 ) / 1
LCM(241,8310) = 2002710 / 1
LCM(241,8310) = 2002710
