So the greatest common factor 8508,2241 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 248,6667
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1653416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1653416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8508/248,2241/6667 is 3/1653416
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 248,6667 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(248,6667) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(248,6667) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(248,6667) = ( 248 × 6667 ) / 1
LCM(248,6667) = 1653416 / 1
LCM(248,6667) = 1653416
