Lets's calculate LCM of 240,3317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 796080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 73/796080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4599/240,8249/3317 is 73/796080
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 240,3317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(240,3317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(240,3317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(240,3317) = ( 240 × 3317 ) / 1
LCM(240,3317) = 796080 / 1
LCM(240,3317) = 796080
