So the greatest common factor 8124,2241 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,2829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1522002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1522002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8124/538,2241/2829 is 3/1522002
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 538,2829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,2829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,2829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,2829) = ( 538 × 2829 ) / 1
LCM(538,2829) = 1522002 / 1
LCM(538,2829) = 1522002
