Lets's calculate LCM of 682,5337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3639834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3639834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/682,6021/5337 is 3/3639834
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 682,5337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(682,5337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(682,5337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(682,5337) = ( 682 × 5337 ) / 1
LCM(682,5337) = 3639834 / 1
LCM(682,5337) = 3639834
