Lets's calculate LCM of 604,8143
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4918372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4918372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3046/604,3692/8143 is 2/4918372
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 604,8143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,8143) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,8143) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(604,8143) = ( 604 × 8143 ) / 1
LCM(604,8143) = 4918372 / 1
LCM(604,8143) = 4918372
