Lets's calculate LCM of 886,2885
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2556110
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2556110
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3686/886,6098/2885 is 2/2556110
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 886,2885 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,2885) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(886,2885) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(886,2885) = ( 886 × 2885 ) / 1
LCM(886,2885) = 2556110 / 1
LCM(886,2885) = 2556110
