So the greatest common factor 6880,2541 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 837,298
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 249426
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/249426
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6880/837,2541/298 is 1/249426
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 837,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,298) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,298) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,298) = ( 837 × 298 ) / 1
LCM(837,298) = 249426 / 1
LCM(837,298) = 249426
