Lets's calculate LCM of 23,349
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8027
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8027
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 626/23,872/349 is 2/8027
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 23,349 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,349) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,349) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,349) = ( 23 × 349 ) / 1
LCM(23,349) = 8027 / 1
LCM(23,349) = 8027
