Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2197/381,4174/6486 is 1/823722
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 381,6486 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(381,6486) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(381,6486) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(381,6486) = ( 381 × 6486 ) / 3
LCM(381,6486) = 2471166 / 3
LCM(381,6486) = 823722
