Lets's calculate LCM of 525,2974
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1561350
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1561350
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8414/525,3536/2974 is 2/1561350
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 525,2974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(525,2974) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(525,2974) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(525,2974) = ( 525 × 2974 ) / 1
LCM(525,2974) = 1561350 / 1
LCM(525,2974) = 1561350
