Lets's calculate LCM of 874,3353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2930522
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2930522
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5002/874,6880/3353 is 2/2930522
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 874,3353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(874,3353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(874,3353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(874,3353) = ( 874 × 3353 ) / 1
LCM(874,3353) = 2930522 / 1
LCM(874,3353) = 2930522
