Lets's calculate LCM of 666,1124
| 2 | 666, 1124 |
| 333, 562 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 333 x 562 = 374292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/374292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7122/666,3158/1124 is 2/374292
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 666,1124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(666,1124) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(666,1124) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(666,1124) = ( 666 × 1124 ) / 2
LCM(666,1124) = 748584 / 2
LCM(666,1124) = 374292
