Lets's calculate LCM of 339,3374
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1143786
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/1143786
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5211/339,8694/3374 is 27/1143786
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 339,3374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(339,3374) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(339,3374) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(339,3374) = ( 339 × 3374 ) / 1
LCM(339,3374) = 1143786 / 1
LCM(339,3374) = 1143786
