Lets's calculate LCM of 301,5244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1578444
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1578444
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6051/301,2988/5244 is 3/1578444
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 301,5244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(301,5244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(301,5244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(301,5244) = ( 301 × 5244 ) / 1
LCM(301,5244) = 1578444 / 1
LCM(301,5244) = 1578444
