Lets's calculate LCM of 296,3165
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 936840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/936840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8758/296,5408/3165 is 2/936840
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 296,3165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(296,3165) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(296,3165) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(296,3165) = ( 296 × 3165 ) / 1
LCM(296,3165) = 936840 / 1
LCM(296,3165) = 936840
