Lets's calculate LCM of 284,3709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1053356
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1053356
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6802/284,1658/3709 is 2/1053356
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 284,3709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,3709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,3709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,3709) = ( 284 × 3709 ) / 1
LCM(284,3709) = 1053356 / 1
LCM(284,3709) = 1053356
