Lets's calculate LCM of 262,3361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 880582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/880582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4662/262,1442/3361 is 14/880582
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 262,3361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(262,3361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(262,3361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(262,3361) = ( 262 × 3361 ) / 1
LCM(262,3361) = 880582 / 1
LCM(262,3361) = 880582
