So the greatest common factor 2494,3546 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 143,6507
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 930501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/930501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2494/143,3546/6507 is 2/930501
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 143,6507 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(143,6507) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(143,6507) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(143,6507) = ( 143 × 6507 ) / 1
LCM(143,6507) = 930501 / 1
LCM(143,6507) = 930501
