Lets's calculate LCM of 337,6780
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2284860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/2284860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 224/337,8896/6780 is 32/2284860
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 337,6780 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(337,6780) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(337,6780) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(337,6780) = ( 337 × 6780 ) / 1
LCM(337,6780) = 2284860 / 1
LCM(337,6780) = 2284860
