Lets's calculate LCM of 337,776
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 261512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/261512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6132/337,7142/776 is 2/261512
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 337,776 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(337,776) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(337,776) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(337,776) = ( 337 × 776 ) / 1
LCM(337,776) = 261512 / 1
LCM(337,776) = 261512
