Lets's calculate LCM of 379,3096
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1173384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1173384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8348/379,4606/3096 is 2/1173384
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 379,3096 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(379,3096) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(379,3096) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(379,3096) = ( 379 × 3096 ) / 1
LCM(379,3096) = 1173384 / 1
LCM(379,3096) = 1173384
