Lets's calculate LCM of 542,2521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1366382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1366382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8908/542,2723/2521 is 1/1366382
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 542,2521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,2521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,2521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,2521) = ( 542 × 2521 ) / 1
LCM(542,2521) = 1366382 / 1
LCM(542,2521) = 1366382
