Lets's calculate LCM of 965,341
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 329065
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/329065
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 716/965,2142/341 is 2/329065
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 965,341 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(965,341) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(965,341) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(965,341) = ( 965 × 341 ) / 1
LCM(965,341) = 329065 / 1
LCM(965,341) = 329065
