Lets's calculate LCM of 412,2261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 931532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/931532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8142/412,2344/2261 is 2/931532
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 412,2261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(412,2261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(412,2261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(412,2261) = ( 412 × 2261 ) / 1
LCM(412,2261) = 931532 / 1
LCM(412,2261) = 931532
