Lets's calculate LCM of 306,6335
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1938510
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1938510
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6340/306,2158/6335 is 2/1938510
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 306,6335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(306,6335) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(306,6335) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(306,6335) = ( 306 × 6335 ) / 1
LCM(306,6335) = 1938510 / 1
LCM(306,6335) = 1938510
