Lets's calculate LCM of 338,2157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 729066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/729066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5974/338,6082/2157 is 2/729066
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 338,2157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(338,2157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(338,2157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(338,2157) = ( 338 × 2157 ) / 1
LCM(338,2157) = 729066 / 1
LCM(338,2157) = 729066
