Lets's calculate LCM of 338,7287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2463006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/2463006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6847/338,7913/7287 is 41/2463006
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 338,7287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(338,7287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(338,7287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(338,7287) = ( 338 × 7287 ) / 1
LCM(338,7287) = 2463006 / 1
LCM(338,7287) = 2463006
