Lets's calculate LCM of 494,6959
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3437746
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3437746
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2168/494,9711/6959 is 1/3437746
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 494,6959 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,6959) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,6959) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(494,6959) = ( 494 × 6959 ) / 1
LCM(494,6959) = 3437746 / 1
LCM(494,6959) = 3437746
