Lets's calculate LCM of 261,3815
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 995715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/995715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6608/261,6522/3815 is 2/995715
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 261,3815 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,3815) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,3815) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,3815) = ( 261 × 3815 ) / 1
LCM(261,3815) = 995715 / 1
LCM(261,3815) = 995715
