Lets's calculate LCM of 793,6551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5194943
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/5194943
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1284/793,6672/6551 is 12/5194943
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 793,6551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,6551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,6551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,6551) = ( 793 × 6551 ) / 1
LCM(793,6551) = 5194943 / 1
LCM(793,6551) = 5194943
