So the greatest common factor 6652,3048 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 674,241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/162434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6652/674,3048/241 is 4/162434
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 674,241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(674,241) = ( 674 × 241 ) / 1
LCM(674,241) = 162434 / 1
LCM(674,241) = 162434
