Lets's calculate LCM of 947,715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 677105
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/677105
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2046/947,6042/715 is 6/677105
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 947,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,715) = ( 947 × 715 ) / 1
LCM(947,715) = 677105 / 1
LCM(947,715) = 677105
