Lets's calculate LCM of 246,6101
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1500846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1500846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1646/246,7918/6101 is 2/1500846
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 246,6101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(246,6101) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(246,6101) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(246,6101) = ( 246 × 6101 ) / 1
LCM(246,6101) = 1500846 / 1
LCM(246,6101) = 1500846
