Lets's calculate LCM of 899,7658
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6884542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6884542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2946/899,7706/7658 is 2/6884542
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 899,7658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,7658) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,7658) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,7658) = ( 899 × 7658 ) / 1
LCM(899,7658) = 6884542 / 1
LCM(899,7658) = 6884542
